### Determination of Total Phenol, Flavonoid, Hydroxycinamic Acid and Flavonoid Content  
In this study, \(S\), \(WT\) and \(L\) extracts and their mixtures were analysed for TPC, TFC, THCA and TFLC, and the results are shown in Table 2. The content of THCA and TFLC did not differ significantly (\(p\geq 0.05\)) between the herbal extracts and their mixtures, while TPC and TFC values were significantly different (\(p\leq 0.05\)). The TPC for \(S\) extract content (2.49 g L\({}^{-1}\) of the sample or 27.05 mg of gallic acid equivalents (GAE) g\({}^{-1}\) of dry herb) was higher than the 9.15 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\) in supercritical fluid stage leaf extract reported by [PERSON] et al. [34], higher than 17.1 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\) in sage methanol-acetone extract determined by [PERSON] et al. [35], and higher than methanolic age extract in research conducted by [PERSON] et al. [36] and [PERSON] et al. [37], reporting 2.23 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\) and 2.337 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\), respectively. Similar results (25.58 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\)) for the hydro-methanol extract were reported by [PERSON] & [PERSON] [38]. The TFC content for \(S\) extract (0.62 g L\({}^{-1}\) or 6.91 mg of quercetin equivalents (QE) g\({}^{-1}\) of dry herb) was higher than the 0.923 mg of QE g\({}^{-1}\) determined by [PERSON] et al. [37] and similar to the 5 mg QE g\({}^{-1}\) reported by [PERSON] et al. [36]. As for \(WT\) extract, the TPC content was 2.79 g L\({}^{-1}\) or 15.05 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\). This value is higher than the 12.63 mg catechol equivalent (CE) g\({}^{-1}\) in methanolic extract determined by [PERSON] et al. [39] and similar to the values (15.06 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\)) for thymre flower methanolic extracts reported by [PERSON] et al. [40] and the 15.53 mg caffe acid equivalents (CAE) g\({}^{-1}\) for an aqueous decoction of _Thymus_ x _citridorus_ L. in the study conducted by [PERSON] et al. [41]. The TFC for \(WT\) extract in the present study was 3.17 mg QE g\({}^{-1}\), which is higher than TFC (ranging from 1.412 to 2.076 mg QE g\({}^{-1}\)) in other _Thymus_ species, such as _Thymus trautvetteri_ extracts in different solvents [42] and _Thymus vulgaris_ L. methanolic extract (1.71 mg QE g\({}^{-1}\)) [43]. Regarding the \(L\) extract, the TPC was 7.19 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\). This value is higher than the 2.34 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\) in an ethanolic extract in research conducted by [PERSON] et al. [44], higher than the

2.272 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\) in the aqueous extract reported by [PERSON] et al. (2018), higher than in leaf extracts in different solvents ranging from 0.477 to 0.797 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\) according to [PERSON] et al. (2018) and higher than the 4.04 mg GAE g\({}^{-1}\) in phosphate buffer (75 mM, pH 7.0) extract reported by [PERSON] and [PERSON] (2018). The TFC for \(L\) extract was 0.82 mg QE g\({}^{-1}\), which is higher than the leaf extracts in different solvents ranging from 0.193 to 0.399 mg CE g\({}^{-1}\) recorded in research by [PERSON] et al. (2018). The current study results for one-component herbal extracts showed the highest TPC in the _WT_ extract, so it was expected that two-component mixtures with _WT_ would also have high TPC. Furthermore, low TPC in \(L\) is reflected in all two- or three-component mixtures, with \(L\) as the dominant extract showing a lower amount of TPC. The values were higher in two-component mixtures where \(L\) was not predominant, such as in the _WTL31_ (2.33 g L\({}^{-1}\)) and _SL31_ mixtures (2.04 g L\({}^{-1}\)), due to high TPC in the individual extracts of \(S\) and _WT_. However, the highest TPC was determined in the _WTS31_ mixture (2.51 g L\({}^{-1}\) [PERSON] et al.
