Abstract
ABSTRACT Reactive Oxygen Species(ROS) are continuously produced at a high rate as a by-product of aerobicmetabolism. Since tissue damage by free radical increases with age, the reactive oxygenspecies(ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide(H 2 O 2 ), nitric oxide(NO). Several lines of evidence providedthat ROS appears to cause to develop aging-related various diseases such as cancer, arthritis, cardio-vascular disease. In this study, we have conducted to investigate the biological activities of HominisPlacenta Herbal Acupuncture by measuring total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging,ABTS radical scavenging, Superoxide dismutase(SOD)-like activity, Nitrite scavenging ability in vit-ro. The total polyphenol contents of Hominis Placenta Herbal Acupuncture was 24.6LLElctrondonation ability on DPPH was 49.4%. The 2,2'-azinobis-3-ehtlbezothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radicaldecolorization (ABTS) was 50.01%, similar to the DPPH free radical scavenging. The superoxide dis-mutase (SOD)-like activities of hominis placenta herbal acupuncture was 50.876%. The nitrite scav-enging abilities at pH 1.5, pH 3.0, pH 6.0 were 52.8%, 29.4%, 15.4%, respectively; these abilitiesdecreased as pH increased. We conclude that Hominis Placenta Herbal Acupuncture may be useful aspotential sources of antioxidant.
