Abstract

The aim of this work was to give as much information as possible on Rosa canina dried fruit that is commercially available in Serbia. The UHPLC-DAD-ESI-MS method was employed for both polar and non-polar extracts. The total content levels of lycopene, beta-carotene, total polyphenols, and flavonoids were determined by means of UV-vis spectrophotometry. The antioxidant activity was tested by applying four different methods: ABTS, DPPH, FRAP, and CUPRAC. Overall, nine compounds were identified. The obtained results for dried fruit extract are as follows: beta-carotene 7.25 mg/100 g fruit weight; lycopene 2.34 mg/100 g FW; total polyphenol content 2980 mg GAE/kg FW; total flavonoid content 1454 mg CE/kg FW.
