摘要
In this study, the structural characterization, physicochemical properties, antioxidant, hypolipidemic, and hypoglycemic potentials of polysaccharide components (BLP-1, BLP-2, and BLP-3) purified from blueberry leaf polysaccharides (BLP) were investigated. Ion chromatography results showed that BLP-1, BLP-2, and BLP-3 contained rhamnose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, and glucuronic acid. In contrast to BLP-1, BLP-2 and BLP-3 included galacturonic acid. The methylation analysis results indicated that the backbones of BLP-1, BLP-2, and BLP-3 were mainly composed of glycosidic linkages of arabinose, galactose, and glucose, which was consistent with the results of the previously determined monosaccharide composition. The in-vitro antioxidant results showed that BLP-1, BLP-2, and BLP-3 possessed antioxidant activity with the highest scavenging of -OH radicals. Furthermore, BLP-1, BLP-2, and BLP-3 showed high bile acid-binding activity and α-amylase inhibitory activity, suggesting that they have the potentials of hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic. This study provides a reference for the utilization of blueberry leaf resources.
