Abstract:
〈 p 〉 〈 em 〉 Curculigo orchioides 〈 /em 〉 Gaertn. is used in traditional medicine in Vietnam. The antioxidant potential of 〈 em 〉 Curculigo orchioides 〈 /em 〉 was 〈 em 〉 〈 /em 〉 evaluated through DPPH radical scavenging and total antioxidant capacity method. The data resulted from DPPH radical 〈 em 〉 〈 /em 〉 scavenging activities indicated that 〈 em 〉 Curculigo orchioides 〈 /em 〉 displayed the good activities with low IC 〈 sub 〉 50 〈 /sub 〉 value (22.78μg/mL), approximately 1.5 times less than that of curcumin (34.34 μg/mL). The total antioxidant capacity of the extract of 〈 em 〉 Curculigo orchioides 〈 /em 〉 contained 132.48 ± 1.48 mg GA/g or 264.45 ± 2.34 μmol AS/g. Content of compounds from Curculigo orchioides including the total phenolic, total flavonoid, polysaccharides, and saponin - triterpenoids were examined using the colorimetric method with reagents. The content of phenolic compounds, flavonoid compounds, polysaccharides, and saponin – triterpenoids found in 〈 em 〉 Curculigo orchioides 〈 /em 〉 was 196.24 ± 1.45 mg GAE/g, 78.49 ± 1.78 mg QUE/g, 4.34 ± 0.08 %, 47.60 ± 0.24 mg Rb1/g (Rb1: (Gypenoside III)), respectively. Specifically, the total saponin - triterpenoid content of 〈 em 〉 Curculigo orchioides 〈 /em 〉 has been reported for the first time. 〈 /p 〉
