Abstract
In order to study the antioxidant effect of Bush Sophora Root polysaccharide (BSRPS) and its sulfate on anti-duck virus hepatitis (DVH), sulfated Bush Sophora Root polysaccharide (sBSRPS) was prepared by chlorosulfonic acid–pyridine method. Ducklings were fed with BSRPS and sBSRPS after challenged DHAV. Death was monitored, evaluation indexes of peroxidative and hepatic injury at the initial (4th and 8th hour) and later (54th hour) stages were detected. The results showed a fine treatment effect of BSRPS and sBSRPS. Visual hepatic pathological injury severities were less serious after the treatment. At the initial stage, free radical levels in all groups were the same, and BSRPS and sBSRPS reduced the hepatic injury through inhibiting virus replication. At the later stage, mass free radicals were detected in VC group while free radical levels in BSRPS and sBSRPS groups were significantly lower than VC group. The antioxidant effect of BSRPS and sBSRPS might alleviate the hepatic injury.
