ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze peroxide value and anisidine value of ethyl polyenoate soft capsules and imported drugs and evaluate the oxidative stability.Methods The analysis was carried out on a TSK gel ODS-100 V(250 mm ×4.6 mm,5μm)with methanol-water(98:2,V/V)as the mobile phase to determine the structure of the vitamin E as antioxidant.The influence on the antioxidation effect of tocopherol acetate andα-tocopherol as excipient in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid ethyl ester drugs was evaluated.Results The structure of vitamin E as antioxidant in domestic drugs was acetate, while vitamin E as excipient in foreign drugs had the structure of α-tocopherol monomer.As antioxidant, the antioxidation effect of tocopherol acetate was better thanα-tocopherol.The structure of vitamin E had a direct impact on the antioxidation effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid ethyl ester drugs.Conclusion The studies provide the basis for evaluate rationality of antioxidant in ethyl polyenoate soft capsules scientifically, which has positive significance for controlling the quality of the drug effectively.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the radiation protection and its molecular mechanism of the polysaccharide from Monostroma nitidum. Methods The mice were randomly divided into the normal group, the model group and 3 treatment groups. Polysaccharide from Monostroma nitidum was applied to the treatment group for 15 d before irradiation with 6.0 Gy rays. 30-day survival rate was observed. The counts of peripheral white blood cell, thrombocytes and erythrocytes were measured. The activities of the antioxidant enzymes SOD and GSH-Px were assayed , and the damage to the cell membrane was studied by measuring the lipid peroxides MDA levels. The spleen index and transformation response of splenic lymphocyte were determined. Results 30 day survival rate significantly increased in the polysaccharide groups. The animal experiment showed the counts of peripheral white blood cell, thrombocytes and erythrocytns were significantly and more rapidly recovered in the polysaccharide group after irradiation. The polysaccharides markedly increased the activities of GSH-Px and SOD and decreased the levels of MDA in the blood. In the irradiated mice, the polysacchaxide significantly increased the spleen index and transformation response of splenic lymphocyte when compared with irradiation mice.Conclusion The present observations suggest that the polysaccharide from Monostroma nitidum had a marked redioprotective effect on irradiated mice and that the biological response might be caused by the hematopoiesis recovery, antioxidant effect and immune activation.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To extract and determine the flavonoids of hawthorn fruits and their antioxidative effect. Method: The ultrasonic method was used for extracting flavonoids. The content of flavonoids was determined by spectrophotometry, and the antioxidation effect was determined by flow-injection chemiluminescence.. Results and Conclution: The recovery rate was 96%～105% and the coefficient of variation was 0.14 % by spectrophotometry. Hawthorn fruits had high antioxidative effect, showing dose-response relation.
