Abstract:
Objective To investigate the scavenging abilities of ginkgo albumin to reactive oxygen in vitro, as well as the protection and mechanism of ginkgo albumin on damaged DNA. Methods Lotus Seedpod Procyanidin (LSPC) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were used as control sample, the effect of ginkgo albumin on removal of superoxide anion was determined by Pyrogallol-Luminol system. Scavenging ability of ginkgo albumin on hydroxide free radical was determined by CuSO4-Phen-Vc-H2O2, FeSO4-Luminol-H2O2, and FeSO4-Luminol systems. Luminol-H2O2 system was used to measure the scavenging effect on hydrogen peroxide. Preventive effect of ginkgo albumin on in vitro damaged DNA was determined by CuSO4-Phen-Vc-H2O2-DNA system. Results Ginkgo albumin possessed a good scavenging potency on reactive oxygen and protection on damaged DNA, but promoted oxidation in the FeSO4-Luminol-H2O2 and Luminol-H2O2 chemiluminescence systems. Conclusion Not every chemiluminescences system is suitable for investigating the antioxidant activity of ginkgo albumin.
