Abstract
|
|
|
In present study, a soluble Taxus berry saccharide (sTS) was purified by water extraction, size exclusion filtration and ethanol precipitation from the Taxus cuspidata. Meanwhile, primary structure of sTS affecting on the level of activity was analyzed using TLC. With a purpose of finding potent pre-drug, antioxidant (DPPH, ABTS, FRAP) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of sTS were evaluated, respectively. sTS could concentration-dependently significantly increase of antioxidant activities as compared to those in control. These results indicated that sTS could be developed to a potential antioxidant used in vary commercial industry.
