The present study aimed to investigate flavonoid content and antioxidant activity of Artemisia vulgaris “hairy” roots of 3 lines. We also studied the safety of transgenic root extracts by determining their genotoxicity. The total flavonoid content in water extracts of the fresh “hairy” roots reached up to 1.976 ± 0.1 mg/g FW, which is 4.8 times higher than in control plant roots. Extracts of transgenic roots on average showed 1.5 times higher antioxidant activity compared to untransformed roots. The comet assay results indicated the absence of the genotoxic effect of all tested extracts. Therefore, these extracts can be the source of safe antioxidant compounds.
