  1. The top 20 anti-oxidant candidate list of mulberry fruits was generated by sorting the mass peak list according to Score 3. The corresponding formulae are given by UHR FT-ICR MS. Five strong standard antioxidants (SAOx) were included in the list and two additional antioxidants (O1, O2) were found from the mulberry (Morus alba L.) fruit extract. Three unknown strong antioxidant candidates (N1, N2, and N3) were listed. From a survey of natural product databases [28] and reference literatures, six of these antioxidants (AOx1 ~AOx6) are found in other plants [29,30,31, 34, 35] and most of the antioxidants have structures corresponding to flavonoids. Four known compounds was never published as an antioxidant before. So it can be a new antioxidant candidates. And three new compounds (N1, N2, and N3) showed the close correlation with activity profiles. Probably the very early eluting fractions and the last fractions will be the good starting fractions to find the novel oxidative molecules from mulberry fruits
