Abstract

Chinese angelica polysaccharide (CAP) was extracted by water decoction and ethanol precipitation, purified through eliminating protein by Sevage method and column chromatography of Sephadex G-200, then selenizingly modified by nitric acid–sodium selenite method according to L9(34) orthogonal design of three-factors, the usage amount of sodium selenite, reaction temperature and reaction time, at three level to obtain nine selenizing CAPs, sCAP1–sCAP9. Their effects on chicken peripheral lymphocytes proliferation in vitro were compared by MTT assay taking the non-modified CAP as control. The results showed that selenylation modification could significantly enhance the immune-enhancing activity of CAP, sCAP2 presented best effect and the optimal modification conditions were 200mg of sodium selenite for 500mg of CAP, the reaction temperature of 70°C and the reaction time of 6h.
