“…It was determined for the first time in our study. Antioxidant potentials of other Hesperis species such as Hesperis matronalis, H. matronalis, H. isatidea have been reported in the literature [25,28,32]. In our study, the antioxidant potential of H. pendula was determined.…”

Many natural products are used in complementary medicine. Plants are widely used among these natural products. In this study, it was aimed to determine the total phenolic and flavonoid contents, total antioxidant status and antimicrobial activity of Hesperis pendula DC. In this context, the above-ground parts of the plant were extracted with ethanol and methanol. The total antioxidant level of the plant was determined using Rel Assay Diagnostics kits (Megatıp/Türkiye). The total phenolic content was assessed using the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent. Aluminum chloride assay was used to estimate the total flavonoid content. Antimicrobial activity was tested against bacterial and fungal strains by agar dilution method. As a result of the studies, it was observed that the ethanol extract of the plant had higher TAS (Total antioxidant status) (5.707±0.194 mmol/L), TOS (Total oxidant status) (21.646±0.239 µmol/L) and OSI (Oxidative stress index) (0.380±0.017) values. Total phenolic content was higher in ethanol extract (116.78±2.51 mg/g) while total flavonoid content was higher in methanol extract (93.64±2.16 mg/g). It was observed that the ethanol and methanol extracts of the plant inhibited the growth of bacteria at 100-200 µg/mL concentrations. It was determined that ethanol extract inhibited the growth of fungi at 200 µg/mL concentration and methanol extract at 200-400 µg/mL concentrations. In this context, it was determined that H. pendula could be a natural antioxidant and antimicrobial source.

“…As a result of oxidative stress, serious diseases such as cancer, heart diseases, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases may occur [28,29]. Supplementation with antioxidants can be used to reduce the effects of oxidative stress [30]. In this context, the antioxidant potential of B. nigrescens was determined in this study.…”

Mushrooms are natural materials that spread in cosmopolitan manner. In this study, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties of wild mushroom Bovista nigrescens Pers were determined. In addition, the total phenolic contents and element levels of the mushroom were determined. The mushroom was extracted with ethanol and methanol in a soxhlet apparatus. The antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS) and oxidative stress index (OSI) were measured using Rel Assay Diagnostics (Mega Tıp/Türkiye) kits. The agar dilution technique was used to test for antimicrobial activity. To quantify total phenolic content, the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent was utilised. A device that uses atomic absorption to measure element concentrations was used. The results showed that the TAS value was the greatest in the ethanol extract. Methanol extract was found to have the highest values of both TOS and OSI. Ethanol extracts were shown to be effective against bacterial strains at concentrations of 50-200 μg/mL and against fungal strains at 100 μg/mL. The methanol extract was shown to be effective against bacteria at concentrations between 100 and 400 μg/mL, and against fungi at concentrations between 100 and 200 μg/mL. The ethanol extract and the methanol extract had total phenolic contents of 46.83±4.77 mg/g and 39.22±4.86 mg/g, respectively. Overall, element concentrations were determined to be consistent with what is reported in the literature. However, it was found that Pb content was rather high. Therefore, B. nigrescens was shown to possess antioxidant and antibacterial properties.
