The aim of this study was to determine the total phenolic and total flavonoid contents of the extract obtained from the fruit of Astragalus davisii, which is distributed in Van Province. The plant material was collected in Bahçesaray District of Van Province. Folin-Ciocalteu reagent was used to determine total phenol content and AlCl3 reagent was used to determine total flavonoid content. The total phenolic content of the plantwas 108.04 μg GAE/mg, the total flavonoid content was 728.71 μg QE/mg equivalent to quercetin and 33.33 μg CE/mg equivalent to catechin. The results obtained showed that the plant may have the potential tobe used for medicinal purposes.
