Abstract (english)

Hypericum L. (Hypericaceae), a large genus widespread
in the temperate regions of Earth, contains approximately 4 5 O species
easily recognizable by their golden flowers. The naphtodianthrone pigment
hypericin, a photoactive polycyclic anthrone is one of the most important
bioactive compound present in the plants of this genus. ln this work the
quantity of total hypericins, expressed as hypericin, was determined by the
spectrophotometric method in flowering upper parts of the six species from
the genus Hypericum: H. delphicum Boiss & Heldr, H. hircinum L., H.
kouytchense H. Lev., H. oblongifolium Choisy, H. perforatum L. and H.
richeri Vill. subsp. grisebachii (Bois.) Nyman. Extracts were obtained using
two extraction solvents: a mixture of tetrahydrofuranlwater and methanol.
The highest content of total hypericins was determined in the samples of H.
richeri Vill. subsp. grisehachii, while the smallest in the samples of H. hircinum,
H. kouytchense and H. oblongifolium.
