Abstract
In the present study, the anti-oxidative properties of 80% ethanol extracts from 140 kinds of natural plants were investigated. Persicaria perfoliata had the highest anti-oxidative relative potency(VitaminE, $ORAC_{PE}$=1.0), followed by Sorbaria sorbifolia var. stellipila, Rosa multiflora, Lysimachia vulgaris var. davurica, Quercus aliena, Quercus mongolica and Lespedeza bicolor ($ORAC_{PE}$ ${\geq}$ 1.50). Among them, the anti-oxidative activity values of the n-hexane, $CH_2Cl_2$, EtOAc, n-BuOH, and water fractions of the 80% EtOH extracts of P. perfoliata and S. sorbifolia in the ORAC assay system were $1.13{\pm}0.002$, $1.10{\pm}0.004$, $3.67{\pm}0.232$, $1.62{\pm}0.049$ and $1.05{\pm}0.003$; $1.02{\pm}0.007$, $1.00{\pm}0.016$, $2.94{\pm}0.130$, $1.80{\pm}0.019$ and $1.04{\pm}0.012$, respectively, with marked anti-oxidative activity in the ethyl acetate fraction from selected the 2 plant extracts.
