Soy sauce residue (SSR) is a valuable biological resource, which contains soy isoflavones (SIs) with antioxidant activity and can be used to scavenge radicals. Herein, MIL-100(Fe) was synthesized for the extraction of SIs from SSR. Under the optimal adsorption conditions, the adsorption capacity of MIL-100(Fe) for SIs was 51.81 mg/g, which could achieve a purity of 56.17% and a recovery of 93.8%. These results demonstrated MIL-100(Fe) possessed effective properties of adsorption and purification for SIs. The content of SIs in the purified product was 167 times than that of SSR. The purified total SIs had a good antioxidant activity. The established method had a good scavenging ability toward 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, superoxide and hydroxyl radicals, with IC50 values of 0.177, 0.116 and 0.082 mg/mL, respectively. Besides, the ferrous ion chelating potency was better than others, with IC50 values of 0.63 ± 0.0044 mg/mL. The established method was suitable for large-scale separation of purified total SIs and provided a reference for purification of bioactive factors from complex substrates.
