Abstract
This study explores the antioxidant activities of solvent extracts from Rhus verniciflua, and the results were as follows. Total phenolic compound and flavonoid contents of Rhus verniciflua were $4.32{\pm}0.17$ mg/100 g and $0.16{\pm}0.02$ mg/100 g, respectively. Electron-donating abilities of solvent extracts from Rhus verniciflua proportionally increased with concentration, and ethyl acetate extract ($95.4{\pm}0.4%$) showed higher activity than that of BHT ($93.3{\pm}1.7%$) at a concentration of 1,000 ${\mu}L$/mL. Reducing power of the solvent extracts from Rhus verniciflua was the highest in ethyl acetate extract ($2.45{\pm}0.03$) at a concentration of 1,000 ${\mu}L$/mL. Nitrite scavenging ability of the solvent extracts from Rhus verniciflua (pH 1.2, 1,000 ${\mu}L$/mL) was the highest in ethyl acetate extract ($95.5{\pm}0.7%$). Therefore, ethyl acetate extract from Rhus verniciflua has similar antioxidant activity as that of BHT.
