  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;The water-soluble crude polysaccharide (DDP) obtained from the aqueous extracts of the stem of&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="html-italic"&gt;Dendrobium denneanum&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;through hot water extraction followed by ethanol precipitation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="html-italic"&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;was found to have an average molecular weight (Mw) of about 484.7 kDa. Monosaccharide analysis revealed that DDP was composed of arabinose, xylose, mannose, glucose and galactose in a molar ratio of 1.00:2.66:8.92:34.20:10.16. The investigation of antioxidant activity both&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="html-italic"&gt;in vitro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="html-italic"&gt;in vivo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;showed that DDP is a potential antioxidant.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
