ESR Studitd On The Eliminating Effect On The Superoxide Anion Radical Of Emodin And Diphenyl Ethylene Glucoside In Radix Polygoni Multiflori

Objective:To investigate the effects of Emodin and diphenyl ethylene glucoside on antioxidation of Radix Polygoni Multiflori at molecular lever.Methods:The superoxide anion radical ( Op produced in the alkaline dimethyl surfoxide(DMSO) system was measured by electron spin resonance(ESR).The method was used to observe the eliminating effect on.Superoxide anion radical ( Op of emodin and diphenyl ethylene glucoside which were the main ingredients of Radix Polygoni Multiflori.ResuIts:Both emodin and diphenyl ethylene glucoside were effective in eliminating superoxide anion radicaK Op Produced in the alkaline DMSO system.Conclusions:Radix Poygoni Multiflori has the effect of health-giving and anti-aging.Perhaps this is relevant to emodin and diphenyl ethylene glucoside which are the main ingredientsincluded in the herb.
