Abstract
In the present work, a simple chemiluminescence (CL) method coupled with flow‐injection analysis for the evaluation of antioxidant activity of 5′‐nucleotides (5′‐AMP, 5′‐CMP, 5′‐GMP, 5′‐UMP) was proposed. It is based on inhibition effect of the studied substances on CL emission of luminol–potassium ferricyanide–pyrogallol. Experiments were performed to evaluate the nature of the inhibition by 5′‐nucleotides of the CL reaction and their antioxidant activities. Based on the experimental results, it was observed that 5′‐nucleotides are available antioxidants that could effectively scavenge superoxide anion free radicals in a concentration‐dependent way. This will provide a basis for further development of the use of nucleotides. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
