Abstract:
Objective Agaro-oligosaccharides have been proved to possess the antioxidative ability in vitro. This work focus on the preparation of agaro-oligosaccharides and their antioxidant effect in vivo. Method Agaro-oligosaccharides were hydrolytically obtained and the activated carbon column was used to purify the oligosaccharides. The antioxidative effects of the 10 % ethanol eluted fraction on tissue peroxidative damage induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4) was also investigated in rat. Result Agarobiose of high purity was consequently eluted from chromatography in the fractions of 5 % and 8 % ethanol, agarotetraose and agarohexaose in 10 % to 15 % ethanol, as well as high degree of polymerization (DP) oligosaccharides in 25 % ethanol. The antioxidative results indicated that agaro-oligosaccharides could elevate the activities of SOD, GSH-Px and decrease the level of MDA, GPT, GOT significantly. At a dose of 400 mg?kg~ -1, MDA level was reduced 44 % and 21 % in liver and heart, the activities of SOD and GSH-Px would amount to the peak value in liver and serum, while GPT level was decreased 22 % in serum. Conclusion The purity of agaro-oligosaccharides with different range of DPs was improved by activated carbon column, which possesses the property of different absorbance ability towards oligosaccharides with various DPs and high isolating capability. The animal test also indicated that agaro-oligosaccharides could inhibit the oxidative damage in vivo.
