Calendula officinalis

The possibility of using hydrogels,that are based on copolymers of polyvinylpyrrolidone with 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate for saturation them with extracts of plants,was researched. Hydrogel materials with extracts of Calendula officinal is and Arnica montana were obtained. The sorption capacity of the hydrogels in relation to these extracts and the content of flavonoids in the extracts were determined  by using Ulab108UV.

Modern biotechnological methods for plant biomass production have relevance, since the use of medicinal plants is connected with a limited resource potential of many valuable species, with germination in polluted environment, using plants that are on the limit of destruction or listed in the Red Book.
