However, very little is known about the mechanism for the radioprotective effect of the food factors. In this study, we compared the antioxidative properties of the eleven food factors, such as scavenging activities of reactive oxygen species and free radicals, the one-electron oxidation potentials, and ionization potentials (IP) calculated by the density functional theory. The results suggest that the lower the IP value is, the stronger the anti-apoptotic activity becomes, while no relationship was observed with other antioxidative parameters., 2011 Kagoshima Congress (Joint Meeting of 5th SFRR-Asia, 8th ASMRM, and 11th J-mit)}, title = {Evaluation of Antioxidative Properties of Food Factors in Relation to Inhibitory Activity of Radiation-Induced Apoptosis}, year = {2011} }
