## 3 Materials and Methods  
### Materials  
Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, gallic acid (3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid, abbreviated as GA), anhydrous sodium carbonate (Na\({}_{2}\)CO\({}_{3}\)), were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). Reagents pyrocatech, catechin, caffe acid, epicatechin, _p_-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, and quercetin were of analytical grade and supplied from Merck (Darmstadt, Germany). The plant species _O. mutabilis_ was collected in Mersin, Turkey, and identified by Dr. [PERSON] (Location: C5 Mersin, Mersin-Gozne, around Darsekisi, rocky slopes and scrub area, 36\({}^{\circ}\)58\({}^{\prime}\)10.91\({}^{\prime}\) N 34\({}^{\circ}\)34\({}^{\prime}\)11.79\({}^{\prime\prime}\) E, altitude of 780 m). Ultrature water (18 M\(\Omega\) cm at 25 \({}^{\circ}\)C) was provided by a Millipore Milli-Q Advantage A10.
