Abstract
The study was carried out to optimize the electron donating ability (EDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity, nitrite scavenging ability, and the inhibitory activities of xanthine oxidase and tyrosinase of Ailanthus altissima ethanol extracts from roots, stems and leaves. The EDA of the roots and stem extracts were 64.04% and 63.27% at $1,000{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The SOD-like activity of the leaves extract was the highest (50.00%) at $1,000{\mu}g/mL$. The nitrite scavenging ability of the leaves extracts was over 98% at pH 1.2 and 3.0. The xanthine oxidase inhibitory rates of the extracts were $93.62%{\sim}95.40%$ and the tyrosinase inhibitory rate of the roots was the highest (62.01%) at the concentration of $1,000{\mu}g/mL$. These results indicated that the roots extract showed the highest EDA and tyrosinase inhibition, while the leaves extract had tile highest SOD-like activity and nitrate scavenging ability.
