Abstract


The genus Quercus L. is the largest within the Fagaceae family, comprising over 500 species that are widely distributed across Europe, North America, the Mediterranean, temperate deciduous forests in East Asia, and tropical montane forests in Southeast Asia. This study aimed to investigate the phytochemical composition and evaluate the total polyphenolic content of methanol extracts from the leaves of three Quercus species: Q. henferiana, Q. bidoupensis, and Q. lanata. Using the method of quantitative analysis chemical composition and polyphenol quantification of the extarct, according to the phytochemical composition identified, all of the methanol extracts included anthraglycoside, reducing sugars, flavonoids, sesquiterpene, lactone, and tannins. Methanol extacts prepared from the leaves of Q. bidoupensis, Q. henferiana, and Q. lanata were found to have total phenol amounts of 58.3478 (mgGAE/g), 81.4136 (mgGAE/g), and 18.5381 (mgGAE/g), respectively. This result is the first report on the chemical composition of these three species. It can be helpful to scientific data for application in the pharmaceutical industry and other fields in our lives.
