This study investigated protective effects of the Laurus nobilis, Arum italicum and Malva sylvestris
extracts on the unsaturated fatty acids and the prevention of lipid peroxidation formation in the fenton
reagent environment. Antioxidative activities of the plant extracts were determined with the following
modifications. Lipid peroxidation level in the Fenton R group was significantly high when compared to
the control group, but lipid peroxidation significantly decreased according to the Fenton R group
(p<0.0001). It was determined that extracts had scavenging effect on the DPPH radical depending on the
increase in the flavonoid concentration. Present results confirm that plants decrease lipid peroxidation
level in the fenton reagent environment and protect markedly unsaturated fatty acids in the
environment with radical sourced oxidations.
