Abstract

A dry extract of the leaves of stevia, belonging to the Asteraceae family, grown in Uzbekistan, was extracted with hot water for use as a sweet flavor additive in the food industry. The content of the extract was determined by thin layer chromatography. The extract turned out to be a mixture of various steviol glycosides. It has been established that the main part of the mass of the extract is steviol glycosides - stevioside, rebaudioside A, rebaudioside C, rebaudioside B. When studying the biological activity of the resulting composition, its antimicrobial activity was determined.
