The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity methanolic extracts Filipendula hexapetala Gilib. aerial parts (FHA) and roots (FHR) their potential in different model systems, as well antimicrobial activity. According this, a number assays were employed evaluate F. extracts. In addition, systems carried out, pH, thermal gastrointestinal stability studies. phenolic compounds contents FHA FHR also determined. results showed that had considerable vitro great conditions. exhibited against most tested bacterial fungal species. Also, contain high level compounds, especially extract.
