Özet

© 2019 Parlar Scientific Publications. All rights reserved.This study aims to determine the biological ac-tivity of Allium calocephalum Wendelbo collected from the Gara Mountain (Iraq). As part of this, the plant was extracted with methanol (MeOH) and di-chloromethane (DCM). DPPH free-radical scaveng-ing activity, total antioxidant status (TAS), total ox-idant status (TOS) and oxidative stress index (OSI), DNA protecting activity, antiproliferative activity, antimicrobial activity and phenolic contents of the extracts were determined as part of the assessment of the biological activity. At the end of several studies, it was concluded that A. calocephalum has strong bi-ological activity. Furthermore*Gallic acid, Catechin, Syringic acid, Chlorogenic acid, Caffeic acid, Ros-marinic acid and Sinapic acid with various ppm val-ues were found in the plant as a result of the HPLC analyses. As a result, it was determined that the edi-ble plant A. calocephalum could be an important nat-ural resource in pharmacological terms.
