Spectrum-effect relationship study between HPLC fingerprints and antioxidant activity of Sabia parviflora

Nowadays, the increased prevalence of sub-health significantly affects human health worldwide. Suppressed sub-healthy by dietotherapy/herbal remedy which showed excellent safety profile, low cost and effectiveness, is an effective way. In this research, the fingerprint and antioxidant activity of Sabia parviflora were obtained by HPLC instrument and DPPH, ABTS, FRAP heatmap assays. And the antioxidant active substances were selected by spectrum-effect relationship. The results showed that significant differences in chemical compositions of samples from different sources, and EW, EE extracts had strong antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity of Sabia parviflora was mainly determined by the complex interaction of various flavonoids (promoting, competing or antagonizing). These findings revealed that the abundant flavonoids in Sabia parviflora had significant antioxidant activity and could be potential antioxidants. With therapeutic potential for sub-health, this special tea might provide dietotherapy/herbal to remedy sub-healthy population.
