Abstract :
The oxidation potentials of fifteen flavonoids in phosphate buffer at pH 7.2 were determined by cyclic voltammetry. A good correlation was found between these oxidation potentials and the ability of flavonoids to inhibit Epstein–Barr virus early antigen (EBV-EA) activation. Furthermore, multiple regression analysis revealed that the solvent-accessible surface area (SASA) was a useful parameter for estimating the inhibitory effects of flavonoids on EBV-EA activation.
