Artemisia sphaerocephala Krasch (ASK) is an important member of Compositae (Asteraceae) family. Its seeds have been widely used as traditional medicine and to improve the quality of food. Water soluble and water insoluble polysaccharides are found in the seeds of this plant. Research has been conducted on the extraction of polysaccharides, their modification and determination of their structure. To date different techniques for extraction purposes have been applied which are reviewed here. Antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti-obesogenic, antitumor, and immunomodulatory activities have been explored using in vivo and in vitro methods. Moreover, these polysaccharides have been used as packaging material and as a sensing component for monitoring the freshness of packaged food. Some experimental results have shown that the quality of foods is also improved by using them as a food additive. We have also indicated some of the potential areas that are needed to be explored.
Artemisia sphaerocephala Krasch (ASK) 是菊科（Asteraceae）的重要成员。其种子被广泛用作传统药物，并用于改善食品质量。该植物的种子中含有水溶性和水不溶性多糖。研究人员已经对多糖的提取、修饰和结构进行了研究。迄今为止，已经应用了不同的提取技术，本文对这些技术进行了综述。采用体内和体外方法研究了其抗氧化、抗糖尿病、抗肥胖、抗肿瘤和免疫调节活性。此外，这些多糖还被用作包装材料和传感成分，以监测包装食品的新鲜度。一些实验结果表明，将其作为食品添加剂使用也可以改善食品质量。我们还指出了一些需要探索的潜在领域。
