Objective: Opopanax W. Koch genus is included in Apiaceae family. The genus can be distinguishable with its compound basal leaves, glabrous fruits, yellow flowers, tall stem with glochidate and stellate hairs. It is known with the name "Hercules' all-heal" throughout the world. It was used for the treatment of epilepsy, infertility in women, hemorrhoids and paralysis traditionally. This present research was designed to assess in vitro antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of Opopanax hispidus (Friv.) Griseb.Material and Method: Methanol extracts were prepared from the aerial parts and flowers of the plants. Their antioxidant activities were analyzed through a number of chemical assays: 2,2′-azino-bis(3ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) and 2,2-diphenyl-l-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging assays. Anti-inflammatory activities of the extracts were compared and evaluated using human red blood cell membrane stability testing.Result and Discussion: Aerial parts exhibited stronger ABTS and DPPH free radical scavenging activities than flowers. Howver, flowers were found to be more active than aerial parts in terms of anti-inflammatory effects (IC50=3,32 mg/ml and 4,75 mg/ml; respectively). These data suggest that flowers and aerial parts of Opopanax hispidus exhibited antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. More research studies are necessary to determine the active ingredients in charge of this activity.
