Popis: The fruit of Viburnum odoratissimum is an elliptical berry. The aims of our study were the quantification of some antioxidants using colorimetric assays and the determination of antioxidant activities by three methods, and the relationships between these bioactive compounds and antioxidant activities of the crude extract (CE) and its four fractions derived from the seed of the fruit of Viburnum odoratissimum were investigated. The results showed that the n-butanol-soluble fraction (BF)was the richest fraction in total flavonoids and total phenolic. The ethyl acetate-soluble fraction (EAF) and BF showed good superoxide radical scavenging activity(SRSA) and reducing power(RP), while the petroleum ether-soluble fraction(PEF) possessed the highest inhibiting lipid peroxidantion activity(LPA).There were statistically significant correlations between some antioxidants and antioxidant activities.
