Abstract:
The objective of this research are to isolate the pigment-protein complexes from chlorella and evaluate the antioxidant activities. Chlorella cells were broken by the ultrasonic wave in ice bath and the thylakoids were collected by ammonium sulfate precipitation. The pigment-protein complexes were extracted with phosphate buffer containing 1% of CHAPS. The lutein content of the complexes was analyzed by HPLC, the chlorophyll content was determined by spectrophotometry and BCA assay was employed to analyze the protein content. Results showed that the pigment-protein complexes of chlorella possessed a lutein:Chl:protein ratio of about 12.49:7.18:100 (m/m/m). The half maximal effective concentrations of the complexes against superoxide anion radical and DPPH radical were 294 μg/mL and 422 μg/mL respectively. The ferrous ion-chelating rate could reach 30% when the concentration of the complexes reach 1000 μg/mL. The reducing power of the complexes was dose-dependent with concentration of 200~1000 μg/mL. When the concentration of complexes reach 600 μg/mL, the lipid peroxidation could be completely inhibited. © 2017, Editorial Office of Journal of CIFST. All right reserved.
