Abstract:
Objective To study the antioxidant activities of different parts of Forsythia suspensa and two components isolated from it. Methods The antioxidant activities were assayed through scavenging effects to DPPH radical. The content of forsythiaside and forsythin of Forsythia suspensa was determined by HPLC- PDA. Results Both different parts of Forsythia suspensa and two components isolated from it had antioxidant activity. Conclution Forsythiaside showed much higher antioxidant activity than forsythin. It is an effective natural free radical scavenger.
