Abstract
We have isolated an antithrombin active polysaccharide in red ginseng by procedures comprising three major steps involving alkaline extraction, anion exchange and gel permeation chromatography. Active polysaccharide behaved as a single band on cellulose acetate membrane electrophoresis. The average molecular mass was estimated to be about 177 kDa by gel filtration. This polysaccharide was found to be an acidic heteropolysaccharide that contains uronic acid moiety
홍삼으로부터 염기성 수웅액 추출, 음이온교환 크로마토그래피 및 겔여과 크로마토그래피를 순차적으로 수행하여 항트롬빈 활성을 보이는 다당체를 분리하였다. 이 다당체는 셀룰로스 아세테이트막을 사용한 전기영동에서 하나의 띠로 나타나 비교적 순수하게 정제되었음을 알 수 있었고, 겔여과 크로마토그래피에서 결정된 평균 분자량은 약 177kDa이었다.
