Abstract
Zanthoxylum nitidum is a traditional Chinese herb, but limited information is available concerning its antioxidant activity of Z. nitidum. In this study, the bioactive components, content, and antioxidant activity of Z. nitidum roots from various regions in southern China were detected and evaluated. The results revealed that the highest nitidine chloride content found in S13. The S1 contained significantly higher concentrations of hesperidin, total flavonoids, and total phenols than other samples. The samples from S13, S1, and S12 had the strongest comprehensive antioxidant activity. Stoichiometric analysis revealed that samples from various regions were effectively identified and classified. This is the first study to investigate the antioxidant activity of wild-type Z. nitidum in southern China. It lays the groundwork for Z. nitidum harvesting, origin identification, sensible use, as well as the quality evaluation of Z. nitidum resources, particularly in vitro antioxidant activity assessment.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Natural Product Research is to publish important contributions in the field of natural product chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds.
The communications include coverage of work on natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals. Discussions of structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural products as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal. Finally, research papers in fields on the chemistry-biology boundary, eg. fermentation chemistry, plant tissue culture investigations etc., are accepted into the journal.
Natural Product Research issues will be subtitled either ""Part A - Synthesis and Structure"" or ""Part B - Bioactive Natural Products"". for details on this , see the forthcoming articles section.
All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
