TLDR
Liver and heart homogenates were subjected to in vitro oxidative stresses such as supplementation with organic hydroperoxide or with enzymatic systems generating superoxide anion or hydrogen peroxide and chemiluminescence was higher in the poststress samples than in the control ones.

[34] Screening of dietary carotenoids and carotenoid-rich fruit extracts for antioxidant activities applying 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylenebenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radical cation decolorization assay

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the screening of dietary carotenoids and carotensoid-rich fruit extracts for antioxidant activities applying 2, 2'-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) decolorization assay.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current status of antioxidant therapy

TL;DR: This review addresses some of the disease states associated with increased oxidative stress from endogenous sources and the possible therapeutic advantage of the antioxidant treatment on coronary heart disease, reperfusion injury, and organ storage for transplantation.

Quercetin Decreases Oxidative Stress, NF-κB Activation, and iNOS Overexpression in Liver of Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats

TL;DR: It is suggested that quercetin treatment, by abolishing the IKK/NF-kappaB signal transduction pathway, may block the production of noxious mediators involved in the development of early diabetes tissue injury and in the evolution of late complications.

Spectrophotometric determination of antioxidant activity.

TL;DR: The spectrophotometric technique for total antioxidant activity (TAA)(1,2) measures the relative abilities of antioxidants to scavenge the 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenz-thiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical cation in comparison with the antioxidant potency of standard amounts of Trolox, the water-soluble vitamin E analogue.
