Résumé:
In recent decades, the anti-aging and antioxidant properties of thyme and olive leaves
have been highlighted by scientists. Among other things, they allow very natural treatment of
diuretics, antidiabetic, antioxidant, vascular spasmolytic, hypoglycemic, antibacterial,
respiratory pathologies. This study was carried out on two different plants: the olive tree
(Olea europaea L .) varieties (Arabica,Sigouaz) and the wild thyme (Thymus vulgaris L .)
mila region in order to quantify the secondary metabolites contained in the leaves of both
plants and the evaluation of their antioxidant activities by methanolic extract. This extraction
was made in lab 13 Faculty of Natural Sciences, while the phytochemical study was carried
out at the Centre de Recherche Biotechnologique (CRBT). A series of biochemical activities
have been carried out to detect and quantify many compounds such as: flavonoids;
polyphenols ; biologicalactivities: Abts, Dpph, Cupric, Amylase, and Phynontroline. Our
results revealed a great difference between the two plants, thyme for its high antioxidant
contents and olive leaves especially the varieties Sigouaz for the antidiabetic.
