Abstract The fruits of the Sea buckthorn (
Hippophae rhamnoides L.) are a popular plant food and a valuable health product. Cultivating plants produces a lot of leaves with fine branches as an unnecessary residue, which needs valorization. The aim of the study was to estimate (by HPLC-MS/MS) the qualitative and quantitative content of
polyphenolic compounds in different parts of
H. rhamnoides (
HR), and to determine the level of antioxidant
activity of leaves and fruits (by DPPH, ABTS methods and ferrozine test). Up to 19 compounds were identified
in different parts of
HR. The fruits are rich in flavonoids, including…
