The chemical composition of fatty acids in lipids extracted from roots of Orchis chusua D. Don was studied using GC-MS. It was shown that the extract consisted mainly of unsaturated 9,12-octadecadienoic acid (65.8%) and saturated hexadecanoic acid (17.0%). The extract at concentrations of 0.410 and 0.415 mg/mL exhibited antimicrobial activity against strains B. subtilis and S. aureus and potent antioxidant properties according to absorption of DPPH•, ABTS, and OH radicals and a test for the ability to reduce Fe3+.
