Abstract
Sphaerophysa kotschyana, an endemic plant belonging to Fabaceae, is distributed around the Tuz Lake in the Konya region. In this study, methanolic extract of S. kotschyana was evaluated for antioxidant capacity. According to obtained data; free radical scavenging capacity (DPPH●) and reducing power activity were observed to be lower than standard antioxidants, cation radical scavenging activity (ABTS●+) was similar to the standard antioxidants. Total phenolic compound was found in leaf-stem and fruit 0.357 mg GAE/kg DW and 0.006 mg GAE/kg DW, respectively. D-pinitol and sucrose were isolated and identified by chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques.
