GC-MS metabolic profiling of the apolar and polar fractions from methanolic
   extracts of Haberlea rhodopensis revealed more than one hundred compounds
   (amino acids, fatty acids, phenolic acids, sterols, glycerides, saccharides,
   etc.). Bioactivity assays showed that the polar fractions possessed strong
   free radical scavenging activity (IC50 - 19.95 ?14.11 ?g ml-1 for fresh
   leaves and 50.04 ?23.16 ?g ml-1 for desiccated leaves), while both the polar
   and apolar fractions failed to provoke any significant cytotoxic effects
   against the tested cell lines. Five compounds possessing antiradical activity
   were identified - syringic, vanillic, caffeic, dihydrocaffeic and p-coumaric
   acids.</jats:p
