title: [Antioxidative activity of flavonoids in various systems of lipid peroxidation].
abstract: The antioxidant action of flavonols in different systems of lipid peroxidation (LPO) was studied. Quercetin and rutin were found to inhibit NADPH and CCl4-dependent LPO in rat liver microsomes, however, in the case of CCl4-dependent LPO, rutin had a very poor antioxidant effect. Study of flavonols oxidation by products of the cytochrome c catalyzed destruction of linoleic acid hydroperoxide demonstrated that the differences in the antioxidant offects of quercetin and rutin can be due to their different capability to terminate free radical chain reactions. The antioxidant effect of rutin was shown to be largely due to the chelating properties of this compound.
