Plectranthus amboinicus is a herb that was found to have a lot of bioactive compounds, most of them are polyfenolic compounds. Extraction is neccesary to obtain bioactive compounds and to use them subsequently in food or cosmetic industry. Three methods of extraxtion – maceraction, PHWE and PFE, were used in this study. The best yield of extracted polyfenols was observed by maceration. Maceration was, in the next step, optimized using mathematical statistical method of planned experiment (DOE). The optimal conditions found for extraction were: temperature 60 °C, solvent 40% ethanol, time 90 minutes, solid-solvent ratio 1:10. Total phenolic compunds content in this extract was 0,18 ± 0,05 mgGAE·ml-1, which means 1,83 ± 0,53 mgGAE·g-1 of plant. The antioxidant activity was 148,69 ± 26,92 gTEACml-1. Percentage of radical scavenging activity ABTS•+ was 30,03 ± 5,44 %. Further, 27 of volatile aroma compounds were identified in optimal extract, the most important were: -selinene (16,67 %), trans--bergamotene (14,22 %), caryophyllene (14,11 %), 3-carene (8,22 %), -copaene (7,55 %), -terpinene (6,28 %), humulene (5,87 %), cadina-1(10)-4-diene (5,19 %).
