“…In contrast, in Tudor strawberries, the total phenolic content was reduced or not affected by soil composition. 68 These results underline the importance of considering soil composition and soil physicochemical parameters when growing medicinal and aromatic plants, as soil organic matter, can significantly impact the extracts' biological and antioxidant activity. 69…”

Organic additions improve soil quality by altering its physicochemical characteristics and decreasing bulk density, which raises the water content, microbial diversity, and general permeability of the soil. 4 These additions may improve the fertility and health of the soil. 5 It favorably affects how well plants use nutrients and engage in photosynthetic responses. to increase plant productivity and metabolism, organic fertilizers are a vital supply of the macronutrients N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S, and micronutrients Fe, Mn, Cu, and Zn. [6][7][8] The increase in crop yields containing abundant biologically active compounds holds great potential for their utilization in cosmetics and pharmaceutical products due to their remarkable antioxidant activity. [9][10][11] To maintain the therapeutic value of herbs while ensuring the long-term profitability of herb production, it is also crucial to grow medicinal plants in minimallyinput sustainable farming systems. 12 Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), a perennial herb of the Lamiaceae family, which grows natural in the Mediterranean region. 13 The plant grows under different pedoclimatic conditions. 14,15 In recent years, rosemary cultivation was successfully attributed in both arid and semi-arid regions with critical climate conditions. 16 This adaptable herb has several use in food, medication, spices, and cosmetics. 17 In the food sector, rosemary is appreciated as a natural preservative in addition to its culinary uses. 18 Rosemary has a long medicinal history as natural medication for multiple diseases, including asthma, 19 digestive disorder, 20 inflammation, 21 dyslipidemia, 22 cancer, 23 as well as showcasing antimicrobial and antiviral properties.

“…The total flavonoid content of underground parts of rosemary was the highest (24.91±0.69 mg QE/g) when cultivated in the mixture of soil, vermiculite, and perlite (Table 4). The total phenolic content of Maletto strawberries was the highest when grown in volcanic soil, whereas the total phenolic content of Tudla strawberries was reduced or remained unaffected depending on soil composition [11]. Flavonoid content of strawberries is strongly influenced by environmental conditions, such as soil composition, temperature, and light intensity [20].…”

“…The antioxidant activity of rosemary extracts is mostly attributed to polyphenols. Polyphenols are secondary metabolites that are widely distributed in plants, and phenolics are synthesized as defense compounds under stress or in the presence of external injury, such as damage caused by herbivory [11]. Polyphenols contain an aromatic ring substituted with one or more hydroxyl groups, which generate hydrogen atoms to scavenge and eliminate free radicals, thereby exhibiting antioxidant effects [12].…”

In this study, the effects of soil conditions on antioxidant activities of the aerial and underground parts of rosemary were assessed to determine the most effective soil conditions for cultivation. The antioxidant activity was the highest (51.58±2.93 µg/mL) when cultivated in the mixture of gardening soil and vermiculite using DPPH assay. The antioxidant activity of underground parts the highest (127.48±12.38 µg/mL) when cultivated in the mixture of soil, vermiculite, and perlite. ABTS assay showed that the antioxidant activity of aerial parts was 230.34±57.93 µg•mL −1 when cultivated in the mixture of gardening soil and vermiculite and that of underground parts was 320.98±16.04 µg•mL −1 when cultivated in the mixture of gardening soil, vermiculite, and perlite. The total phenolic content of aerial parts was the highest (155.25±2.96 mg GAE/g) when cultivated in the mixture of gardening soil. The total flavonoid content of aerial parts was the highest (67.32±5.27 mg QE/g) when cultivated in the mixture of gardening soil. Therefore, the mixture of gardening soil, vermiculite, and perlite is superior to gardening soil alone for cultivation of rosemary to increase its antioxidant activity as well as total phenolic and flavonoid content.

The biological activities of Smilax china L. rhizome (SCR), hot water (SCRW) and 70% ethanol extract (SCRE) were analyzed. The total phenolic contents of SCRW and SCRE were 51.7 and 100.5 mg/g, respectively. The measured flavonoid content of SCRW (61.7 μg/g) was almost double that of SCRE (31.7 μg/g). SCRE (IC50=42.4 μg/mL) exhibited stronger antioxidant activity in the DPPH system than the positive control α-tocopherol (71.3 μg/mL) or butylated hydroxy anisole (53.8 μg/mL) did. SCRE (IC50=50.3 μg/mL) also showed stronger ABTS radical scavenging activity, as did α-tocopherol (67.1 μg/mL). The SOD-like activity and Tyrosinase inhibition activity of SCRW and SCRE showed almost the same pattern. The best SOD-like activity and tyrosinase inhibition activity were measured as 24.9% and 20.3% in SCRW at 1,000 μg/mL, respectively. The cytotoxic effects of the SCR extracts were analyzed via MTT assay on human cancer and normal cells. SCRW and SCRE did not show cytotoxicity up to the concentration of 1,000 µg/mL against the normal human cell line HEK293. Against human breast cancer cells (MCF-7), SCRW inhibited MCF-7 growth (by 27.6%) better than the anticancer drug cyclophosphamide (15.5%) at 1,000 μg/mL. SCRE (1,000 µg/mL) inhibited the growth of human lung cancer cells A549 (37.6%) and human stomach cancer cells AGS (53.6%) more effective than did SCRW (21.0% and 35.4%) or CPA (22.2% and 31.7%). These results suggest the potential use of SCRE and SCRW as an excellent antioxidant and antiproliferative substance, respectively. Key words：anticancer, antioxidant, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, polyphenol, Smilax china L.
