摘要： Coconut sap is consumed as a juice or used as raw material for fermentation to produce beverages with various health benefits. To understand the underlying mechanisms of the health benefits of coconut sap, we investigated the in vitro reactive oxygen species scavenging activities and DNA protecting effects of fresh and naturally fermented coconut sap using a flow-injection chemiluminescence method. The results show that the fresh sap scavenges superoxide anion, hydroxyl radical and hydrogen peroxide better than the naturally fermented sap; in contrast, the fermented sap shows a more powerful ability to prevent damage to DNA than the fresh sap. The naturally fermented sap had a higher polyphenol level but a lower ascorbic acid content than fresh sap, suggesting that fermentation is beneficial for improving the polyphenol content of coconut sap.
