A chemical study of the aerial parts of Phragmites communis Trin. concerning free amino-acids, fatty acids, sterols, tocopherols and polyphenols has been carried out. The amino-acids content was studied at two different periods (winter, summer) in order to elucidate differences. The isolated polyphenols were investigated for antibacteriophage properties.
