Hao Ye

Abstract

Soxhlet extraction was used to extract flavonoids from celery.The antioxidant effect of celery extract was also investigated.The total antioxidant capacity and scavenging capability to free radicals were determined.Results showed that celery extract had strong anti-oxidation effect and scavenging capability to· OH and O2·.The increasing concentration of celery extract resulted in an enhanced anti-oxidation effect and scavenging capability to free radicals.Ethanol extract from celery also exhibited an obvious effect on the prevention of oil oxidation,which was stronger than that of vitamin C.
