Title
Antiradical activity of sage and rosemary extracts
Abstract
Results of experimental work on antiradical activity of extracts form sage and rosemary are presented. Antiradical activity was determined based on kinetics of the quenching of DPPH• radical in the aqueoussolutions of resulting extracts. It was found that the experimentally observed antiradical activity mainly depends on extrahent used and it decreases in the following order: hexane > ethyl acetate > water > methanol > acetone.
