dc.description.abstractEthnobotanical reports claim that St. John's Wort has important biological and chemical properties and can be used for the treatment of many diseases. Most studies related to Hypericum perforatum are focused on its antidepressant effects, but it has also been examined for wound healing, antiviral and antimicrobial activity. In this study the experiments are carried out at ambient temperature at constant stirring rate. The solvent is a 50 vol. % water-ethanolic solution, the solid-to-liquid ratio is 1:10 g mL-1, and the average particle size is 0,75 mm. The results show that the antioxidant capacity and the total polyphenolic content are superior compared to those reported by other authors. The liquid extracts have been stored in a refrigerator for 9 months, then they have been examined again and it has been noticed that their antioxidant effect and total polyphenolic content are preserved. After drying at 50°C, storage and regeneration, the quality of the extracts did not change, which is important issue for long term transportation and storage.
