Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are continuously produced at a high rate as a by-product obtained in the aerobic metabolism. A major portion of living organisms has defense system as superoxide dismutase or catalase against damage produced by ROS. Several lines of evidence provided that ROS appears to cause to develop aging and various diseases. Spatholobus suberectus Dunn has been known as a Korean folk medicine for promoting blood circulation and relieving blood stasis as anemia. In this study, we have investigated the antioxidant activities of Spatholobus suberectus Dunn in order to find the antioxidant substances from natural products. For various antioxidant experiment, the major antioxidant component was isolated from EtOAc extract of Spatholobus suberectus Dunn. This compound was identified as (-)-epicatechin by chemical and physical analysis.
