摘要
[ Objective] This paper was to evaluate the methods of breaking stiffness cell wall of Chlorella sp. and extracting and testing functional antioxidant by ethanol and DPPH method separately. [Method] Extractions were performed at different extraction times （60, 120 and 180 min） at 37 ℃. And the radical scavenging activity of Chlorella spo extract was assayed by the DPPH （ 1,1-Diphenyl-2- picrylhydrazy[） method. [ Result ] The optimal conditions for ethanol extraction from Chlorella sp. were ethanol concentration of 90%, substrate consistency of 5% （w/v） and treating time of 180 min, under which, a concentration of 135.5 mg/L was obtained. Antioxidant pigments obtained from alcoholic extraction from Chlorella sp. showed high free radical scavenging ability. The efficiency increased with increasing concentration of solid microalgae powder, which could reach to 88%. [ Conclusion] Ethanol extraction method is simple and feasible. However, the efficiency of extraction is not high enough, which will limit the yield of antioxidant production from economic prospective.
