Morphology, Solid Structure and Antioxidant Activity in Vitro of Angelica sinensis Polysaccharide-Ce(IV)

Chem Biodivers. 2023 Feb 15:e202200813. doi: 10.1002/cbdv.202200813. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAngelica Sinensis polysaccharide cerium (ASP-Ce) was prepared by Angelica Sinensis polysaccharide (ASP) and cerium ammonium nitrate (NH4 )2 Ce(NO3 )6 . and its morphology, and solid structure was investigated. The antioxidant activity of the ASP-Ce complex in vitro was evaluated. The antioxidant activity of ASP-Ce complex in vitro was evaluated by the scavenging activity of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhyrazyl radical (DPPH), hydroxyl radical (⋅OH) and superoxide anion radical ( O 2 - ${{{\rm O}}_{2}^{-}}$ ⋅). The results showed that the ASP-Ce had the more ordered structure for inserting the Ce4+ into the polymer chain of ASP and there was little change in the conformation of the polysaccharide from Ce4+ . Three free radical scavenging experiments proved that ASP-Ce had better antioxidant capacity than of ASP, especially on DPPH, and then on O 2 - ${{{\rm O}}_{2}^{-}}$ ⋅. The scavenging rate of ASP-Ce at 1.0 mg/mL on DPPH reached 71.6 %. Therefore, these results provide references for the further development and utilization of rare earth-polysaccharide.PMID:36792977 | DOI:10.1002/cbdv.202200813
