Abstract
Procyanidins extracted from the rhizomes of Potentilla tormentilla wer e fractionated according to their degree of polymerization by chromato graphy on Sephadex LH20(R). Dimers and trimers displayed the highest a nti-radical activity towards lipoperoxidation. Pentamers and hexamers possessed the most marked anti-elastase properties.
