Many external factors, such as climatic conditions, geographical differences, and altitude, directly affect the primary and secondary metabolites and therapeutic use of St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.), an important plant in alternative medicine. This study was carried out to identify the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities and the content of proline, malondialdehyde, hydrogen peroxide, flavonoid, anthocyanin, and total phenolic in the St. John's Wort growing naturally in different regions of Bayburt. The St. John's Wort samples were collected from 11 different locations. As a result of the analyses carried out on the plant samples, it was found that the content of proline was within the range of 4.6-8.2 µmol g-1 DW, the amount of malondialdehyde was within the range of 0.69-1.10 nmol g-1 DW, the amount of hydrogen peroxide was within the range of 79.89-155.49 µmol g-1 DW, the amount of flavonoids was within the range of 91.38%-100.27%, the amount of anthocyanin was within the range of 0.15-1.11 mkmol g-1 DW, the total phenolic content was within the range of 15.82-45.22 mg GAE g-1, and the antioxidant activity was within the range of 6.07-105.60 µg mL-1. In conclusion, although the biochemical contents and nonenzymatic antioxidant activities showed a wide variety, the antioxidant activity was found to be higher in samples 5, 8, and 11. According to the antimicrobial activity results, some plant extracts were effective on bacteria and fungi, especially samples 5, 6, 8, and 11 showed an effect at the concentration of 200 μg mL-1. This study, the first regional study on this subject, will contribute to future research and clinical trials in the health field.

Arslaner, Ayla; Salik, Mehmet Ali; Bakirci, İhsan
In this study, the effect of Hibiscus sabdariffa L. flowers marmalade (HM) addition at different ratios (0%, 15%, 20%) was determined on the certain quality properties, total phenolic contents, antioxidant activity, mineral composition and heavy metal content of stirred-type yogurts (C, HM15, and HM20). The marmalade addition increased dry matter, ash, titratable acidity and viscosity whereas decreased pH, fat and protein values. HM addition significantly increased the antioxidant properties of yogurt samples. 2,2-Diphenylpicrylhydrazyl radical-scavenging activity, Copper (II) reducing antioxidant capacity and total phenolic content were found to be in the range of 5.92–26.73 mg TE/100 g, 4.88–15.03 mg TE/100 g, and 5.57–14.69 mg GAE/100 g, respectively. There were no statistically differences between control and HM-added groups in terms of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) counts, also in all samples the total LAB count was above 6 Log cfu/g during the storage. Fe, Mn, B, and Ba mineral values of samples with HM were higher than control sample. Cd, As, Hg and Li heavy metals were not detected in any of the samples, consequently results were within reliable limits reported by JECFA (Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives) and Turkish Food Codex. As a result of the sensory evaluation, the samples containing 20% HM generally received higher scores than the samples containing 15% HM. Considering all the parameters, it was concluded that HM yogurts can be used as a different type in the functional yogurt industry due to its pleasant and characteristic taste.
