Study on Antioxidative Effect of Evodia lepta

Chen Guangying

Abstract

Objective: To study the antioxidative effects and its regularity of Evodia lepta (collected in China, Hainan). Method: Scavenging effects of Evodia lepta on hydroxyl radical (·OH) produced from O-phenathroline-ascorbic acid system, super oxide anion radical(O2·) produced from pyrogallol-CTMAB system and hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) was studied by chemilu- minescence assay. Result: The water extract of Evodia lepta has a significant effect on hydroxyl radical, super oxide anion radical and hydrogen peroxide. Conclusion: The water extract of Evodia lepta is an efficiency antioxidant.
