Investigation of phenolic profiles and antioxidant activities of some Salvia species commonly grown in Southwest Anatolia using UPLC-ESI-MS/MS

Abstract

Aerial parts of Salvia albimaculata Hedge & Hub.-Mor., Salvia potentillifolia Boiss & Heldr. ex Bentham. and Salvia nydeggeri Hub.-Mor. from Soutwest Anatolia, Turkey were evaluated to determine their phenolic compounds and antioxidant properties. According to the ultra performance liquid chromatography with electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-MS/MS) analysis results, caffeic acid (3582.8 ± 2.5 μg/g, 2956.5 ± 4.6 μg/g and 2457.7 ± 3.1 μg/g) and 3,4-dihydroxy benzoic acid (1846.2 ± 3.1 μg/g, 2019.1 ± 2.2 μg/g and 1901.3 ± 1.5 μg/g) were found to be in the highest concentrations in S. potentillifolia, S. albimaculata and S. nydeggeri, respectively. Total amounts of phenolics and flavonoids were determined highest in ethyl acetate extracts of samples and varied from 62.4 ± 0.1 to 55.4 ± 0.0 µg PEs/mg and from 296.8 ± 1.4 to 198.4 ± 1.5 µg QEs/mg, respectively. Antioxidant activity of S. potentillifolia was found to be higher than the others for ABTS•+ and β-carotene linoleic acid assays (SC50 = 49.8 ± 0.9 and IC50 = 26.1 ± 0.6 µg /mL, respectively) while S. albimaculata was found to be higher for DPPH assay (SC50 = 227.4 ± 1.1 µg/mL).
