Abstract:
AIM: To study medical effect of the antioxidation activity of essential oil from smell storusbill(Pelargonium graveolens,L'Her)(PLO) METHODS: Free radicals(O?_2、?OH and DPPH?)scavenging activities were investigated in different special chemical systems.Its anti-lipoperoxidantion activity was studied with MDA generation model in vitro.The effect of the hemolysis of cavy RBC induced by H_2O_2 was also studied.The components of PLO was identified by GC-FID. RESULTS: It was found that PLO showed higher anti-lipoperoxidantion on MDA generation spontaneously in homogenates of cavy heart,liver and kidney.There were significant differences on lipid peroxidant of the cavy liver homogenate induced by CCl_4 between control group and PLO.There were higher scavenging effect of the extracts of foliage on O?_2 and DPPH?PLO could strongly inhibit the hemolysis of cavy RBC induced by H_2O_2.The result of GC-FID and DPPH? scavenging activities indicated that the antioxidantion of citronellol was similar with PLO. CONCLUSION: PLO is a good antioxidation and citronellol is the main antioxidated substance in PLO.
