Structural characterization and antioxidant activity of a heteropolysaccharide isolated from Hedysarum polybotrys.

A water-soluble polysaccharide (HPS3aS) with a molecular mass of 1.22 × 10(4) Da was isolated from Hedysarum polybotrys using anion-exchange and gel-permeation chromatography. HPS3aS exhibits a globular-shaped conformation in 0.

[Spectrum-effect relationship in effect of improving immunity of astragali radix].

Objective: To elaborate the correlation of chromatography fingerprint of Astragali Radix and the efficacy of improving immunity, and express the effective substances foundation.

Methods: The water extract was given to irrigation stomach of mice for carbon clearance experiment. Associated the peak area of each common peak from HPLC fingerprint and the date of improving immunity, and studied the correlation between fingerprint and efficacy and found out the effective substances foundation of improving immunity in the method of gray correlation analysis.
