Microwave-assisted extraction, physicochemical characterization and bioactivity of polysaccharides from Camptotheca acuminata fruits
Abstract
Microwave-assisted extraction of polysaccharides from Camptotheca acuminate (CAPs) was optimized by response surface methodology. The optimal parameters were as follows: microwave power, 600 W; liquid-solid ratio, 40:1 g/mL; extraction time, 14 min; and extraction temperature, 70 °C. Under these conditions, the yield of CAPs reached up to 8.61%. CAP-3, an acidic polysaccharide with a molecular weight of 121.34 kDa, was separated and purified from CAPs, which was only composed of glucose and mannose. CAP-3 exhibited strong antioxidant activity against DPPH (IC 50: 0.78 mg/mL), hydroxyl radicals (IC 50: 0.84 mg/mL) and also showed synergistic antioxidative effect with ascorbic acid in vitro. Meanwhile, CAP-3 could protect plasmid DNA from oxidative damage. Moreover, CAP-3 could improve immunomodulatory activity of RAW264.7 cells through promoting the phagocytosis and nitric oxide release. Therefore, CAP-3 had a strong potential in functional food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
