The blooming plant Chrysanthemum morifolium (Asteraceae) is prized for its rich phytochemical composition and health-promoting qualities. It has long been utilized for both decorative and therapeutic uses. The flowers have a variety of bioactive substances, such as flavonoids (such luteolin and quercetin) and phenolic acids (like chlorogenic acid), which are important sources of antioxidant activity. Higher total phenolic content is closely correlated with stronger antioxidant ability. These phenolics and flavonoids have been demonstrated to scavenge free radicals and reduce oxidative stress in a variety of in vitro experiments, including DPPH and ABTS Plant extracts are frequently made via maceration, a straightforward extraction method that involves soaking dried flower powder in a solvent (such as ethanol) at room temperature for a long time in order to assess antioxidant activity. Maceration makes it easier for phytochemicals to diffuse into the solvent; the yield of antioxidant compounds is influenced by the polarity of the solvent and the duration of extraction. When compared to water extraction, ethanol maceration frequently produces increased flavonoid and phenolic levels, which boost antioxidant activity. All things considered, C. morifolium flower extracts produced by optimal maceration exhibit encouraging inherent antioxidant qualities.
