Abstract

In this study, efforts were made to isolate phtochemicals from European mistletoe (Viscum album L.) using hot (Soxhlet) and cold (magnetic rotation) extraction methods. The dried Viscum album L. (10 g) were extracted exhaustively by Soxhlet with methanol and dichloroethane solvents. Subsequently, 1 μL of sample was utilized for GC/MS analysis, which exhibited 50 peaks of phytoconstituents in the range of 0.12-22.04%. The highest flavonoids content was determined using quercetin calibration curve having a value of 62.26 mg QE/g dry weight.
