Extracts from Schizandra chinensis Baillon (Korean name: Omija) were tested for antioxidant and their inhibitory activities of α-amylase and α-glucosidase. Total contents of phenolics were found as 4.35 mg/g (water extract)~6.35 mg/g (60% ethanol extract). Electron donating ability (EDA), ABTS [2,2'-azinobis(3-ethyl-benzothiaznoline-6-sulfonic acid)] radical decolorization, antioxidant protection factor (PF) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) were measured for the antioxidative activity of the extracts from S. chinensis.
