According to the applied methods, both extracts exhibited moderate activity. Some phenolic compounds that could be responsible for the activity were investigated by RP-HPLC, qualitatively and quantitatively, in the methanolic extract of liverwort. While caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, rutin, myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol were not found in the extract, luteolin as the liable antioxidant agent was determined as ± among the investigated compounds. Key words: Marchantia, antioxidant activity, RP-HPLC, phenolic compounds, luteolin Introduction Liverworts and mosses are small, low-growing plants and constitute the phylum Bryophyta, which is phylogenetically placed between vascular plants and algae. Bryophyta has more than 20,000 members all over the world, and nearly 3000 bryophytes are reported to have medicinal value.
