Abstract: The experiment analyzed and measured the content of Sasanquasaponins and studied it’s capability to clear hydroxyl free radical (•OH) produced by Fenton reaction and to clear superoxide anion (O•2). The results manifested that sasanqua have stronger antioxidant capability, inhibition capability of TBARS formation in Fe2+ induced liposome and strong inhibition capability of oxidation of 2’-deoxyribose and could clear active oxygen radicals produced by the chemical reactions.

Key words: Sasanquasaponins, lipid peroxide, active oxygen radicals, antioxidation
