Results and Discussion
The EtOAc extract of Uvaria rufa leaves was
separated on a reversed-phase column into 11 fractions.
The ability of these fractions to inhibit AGEs formation
was evaluated using the BSA-glucose assay, which
employed bovine serum albumin as the model protein
and glucose as the glycating agent. The results are
presented in Table 1. Six fractions (UR03-UR04, UR08-
UR11) were able to prevent protein glycation more than
50%.
