| 摘要: | 三種麥門冬的抽取物，無論是80%甲醇抽取物（進一步以正己烷、乙酸乙酯、及水依次分配抽取）或是模仿茶粉泡茶方式（即以熱水浸泡麥門冬粉），均具有DPPH自由基（以分光光度方法測定）和氫氧自由基（以ESR，即電子自旋共振光譜方法測定）的清除能力，且與濃度具有相關性。熱水抽取物的DPPH自由基的清除能力與其內含的總酚量有密切關連性。
1,1-dipheny-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging activities of the 80% methanolic leaf extracts of three cultivars (small leaf, SL; big leaf, BL; thin leaf, TL) of Mai-Men-Dong (Liriope spicata L.) are analyzed by spectrophotometry. The concentrations required for 50% inhibition (IC50) of DPPH radicals were 81.08, 96.97, and 53.78μg/mL, respectively. The methanolic extracts were further partitioned into three n-hexane-, ethylacetate-, and water-soluble fractions, among which the ethylacetate-soluble fraction exhibited the highest DPPH scavenging activity. The IC50 of ethylacetate-soluble fractions of SL, BL, and TL for DPPH radical scavenging activity were 41.55, 24.55, and 53.33μg/mL, respectively. Each Mai-Men-Dong powder (1g) was deposited in a tea bag and then dipped in hot water (100℃, 100mL) for 3 min with triplicate samples. These hot-water extracts were then freeze-dried for an anti-DPPH radical capacity test, which found a positive correlation with the phenolic contents of each hot water extract. The IC50 of hot water extracts of SL, BL, and TL for DPPH radical scavenging activities were 378.97, 171.12, and 95.84mg/mL, respectively. All three hot water extracts can effectively scavenge hydroxyl radical using electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrometry. The IC50 against hydroxyl radical were 80.8, 69.7, and 116μg/mL, respectively, for the SL, BL, and TL cultivars. |
