A water soluble arabinoxylan (APPS), with a molecular weight ∼1.49 × 10 Da was isolated from the green stem of Andrographis paniculata. The APPS contained D-xylose, 2-methoxy D-xylose and L- arabinose in molar ratio of 3:1:1. The structure of the repeating unit in the polysaccharide was determined through several chemical (acid hydrolysis, Methylation analysis and periodate oxidation) and spectroscopic analysis (1D/2D NMR experiments) as: In vitro antioxidant assay, APPS was found to possess ferrous ion chelating activity (EC = 283 μg/ml), superoxide radical scavenging activity (EC = 470 μg/ml), and hydroxide radical scavenging activity (EC = 193 μg/ml). Thus, APPS could be used as a natural antioxidant agent for food and pharmaceutical industries.
从穿心莲的绿色茎中分离出一种水溶性阿拉伯木聚糖(APPS),其分子量约为 1.49×10 Da。APPS 含有 D-木糖、2-甲氧基 D-木糖和 L-阿拉伯糖,摩尔比为 3:1:1。多糖重复单元的结构通过几种化学(酸水解、甲基化分析和高碘酸盐氧化)和光谱分析(1D/2D NMR 实验)确定为:体外抗氧化活性测定,APPS 具有亚铁离子螯合活性(EC = 283μg/ml)、超氧自由基清除活性(EC = 470μg/ml)和羟基自由基清除活性(EC = 193μg/ml)。因此,APPS 可用作食品和制药工业的天然抗氧化剂。
