Description
The article is devoted to the study of enzymesantioxidants contained in horseradish root. The article provides a detailed analysis of the sources of information, aimed at clarifying the content of enzymesantioxidants contained in horseradish root, grown in the Astrakhan region in the autumn and summer. During the analysis of the literature, it was found that the content of enzyme-antioxidants in the root of the horseradish is not constant and depends on climatic conditions, planting time and harvest time. The content of antioxidants in the root of horseradish grown in the Astrakhan region in the summer-autumn period was studied using by the method of A.N. Bach and A.I. Oparin. 2 g of horseradish roots contains the number of enzymes - antioxidants able to expand for 30 min (1,547 • 100) / (20 • 1) = 77.35 mg of hydrogen peroxide in 1 min - 2.56 mg. 1mkmol As hydrogen peroxide is 0.034 mg, in 2 g horseradish contains 76 E enzyme - antioxidants (or E 38 1 g horseradish). The results of this work will form the basis for the creation and study of new enterosorbent with antioxidant functions. Enterosorbent prepared by adsorption on starch antioxidants such as peroxidase, catalase, and ascorbic acid, from aqueous extracts of plant material

He is one of us, but he has the same supernatural powers aimed at justice, not only in the mood of the American Society but in the whole world
