Although the total phenolic content of the ethyl acetate extract of R. officinalis (41.8 mg GAE/g dry weight) is higher than that of L. angustifolia 12.7 mg GAE/g dry weight), the corresponding radical scavenging activity of R. officinalis (19.3 %) is higher than those of other plants. The total phenolic content of the methanolic extract of R. officinalis (34.8 mg GAE/g dry weight) is higher than those of other plant species. At the same time, its corresponding antioxidant activity is higher (21.8 %). It was established that there was positive linear correlation between radical scavenging activity and total phenolic contents.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAntioxidant activityDPPHHerbsLabiataePhenolic contentArticle25630113013Q4
