Hot water extracts of Angelica keiskei aerial parts were solvent-fractionated with ethyl acetate (EtOAc) and buffers (5% $NaHCO_3$, pH 8.0; 1.0 N HCl, pH 3.0) to obtain EtOAc-soluble acidic and neutral fractions. EtOAc-soluble neutral fraction was purified by Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and reverse phase HPLC. Assay for purification of antioxidative compounds was performed by spraying DPPH solution on thin layer chromatography. Two isolated substances were identified as pseudoisopsoralen and 8-methoxypsoralen(xanthotoxin) by FAB-MS and NMR analyses.
