Introduction. Lavender is an aromatic plant of the Lamiaceae family. It comes from the Mediterranean region, where it is cultivated on an industrial scale. Lavender has a sedative effect in cases of nervous tension, sleep disorders, climacteric syndrome and migraines. The essential oil is used for skin diseases (erosions on the skin and mucous membranes, trophic ulcers, acne and dermatitis). Chrysanthemum has hypotensive, anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, wound-healing and sedative effects. Externally, chrysanthemum essential oil is used for abscesses, boils and periodontitis.
The aim of the study – to determine the quantitative content of the amount of flavonoids and the amount of polyphenols in the flowers of lavender variety Matilda and small-flowered chrysanthemum.
Research Methods. The material for research was flowers of lavender Matilda variety and small-flowered chrysanthemums cultivated in the territory of Western Podillia, which were harvested during the period of mass flowering in 2023. Quantitative content of the amount of polyphenols and the amount of flavonoids was determined by the spectrophotometric method on a LabAnalyt SP-V1000 spectrophotometer.
Results and Discussion. The results of our research showed that the content of total polyphenols in lavender flowers Matilda variety and small-flowered chrysanthemum flowers was 1.06 % and 1.22 %; the total flavonoids – 2.06 % and 4.27 % respectively. According to the obtained data, the quantitative content of total flavonoids in the small-flowered chrysanthemum flowers was 2 times higher than in the lavender flowers.
Conclusions. Using the spectrophotometric method, the quantitative content of total polyphenols and total flavonoids in the flowers of lavender variety Matilda and in small-flowered chrysanthemum was determined. The conducted studies of chrysanthemum and lavender indicate that analyzed species are promising for further pharmacognostic and pharmacological research.
