Antioxidant Capacity Assays. Chemical and Cellular-based Methods. Review.

The article is a continuation of the book chapter entitled Recent Advances in Antioxidant Capacity Assays published by IntechOpen in 2021. The various methods for determining antioxidant capacity in a variety of materials (plant extracts, biological material, foods, etc.) are discussed, with a special emphasis on articles published in recent years and especially on reviews. Both chemical methods for determining antioxidant capacity and cellular antioxidant capacity assays were presented. In addition to the review published in 2021, the following methods for the determination of antioxidant capacity were presented: crocin bleaching assay, Briggs-Rauscher reaction inhibition assay, ferricyanide-Prussian blue assay, cerric reducing antioxidant capacity assay and Anti Oxidant Power 1 (AOP1) assay. Several applications of the cellular antioxidant capacity assay were also presented in tabular form. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
