Biochemical properties of AEAC. a Chromatograms of the protodioscine were obtained by high performance liquid chromatography of AEAC. The peak height/area reflect the concentration of the protodioscine in AEAC. b Free radical scavenging activity of AEAC. DPPH radical scavenging activity was assayed in a mixture containing 0.1 mM DPPH and a range of concentrations of AEAC (16 – 2,000 μg/ml). DPPH, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical; IC50, half maximum inhibitory concentration. Values are presented as the means ± SD of three replicates
