In this study, it is aimed to investigate the chemical composition of the essential oils, antioxidant activity, and polyphenol content of methanol extracts of M.comminus L. leaves and berries. M.comminus L. Plant was collected from Yalova, Marmara region of Turkey. Its essential oil was prepared by hydrodistillation in a Clevenger-type apparatus in 0.5%. The chemical composition of the essential oil was analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC–MS), using two columns with stationary phases of different polarity (polar ZB-WaxMS/apolar ZB-5MS). On both columns monoterpenes were determined to be the dominant compounds. The myrtenyl acetate, α-pinene, 1,8-cineole, linalool, and limonene were the remarkable substances. As polyphenol compounds, the flavanoids and anthocyanidins in leaves and berries were detected by HPLC and furthermore, their antioxidant activities were studied with DPPH, Cuprac and Folin – Ciocalteu method of the methanolic extracts.
