Measurement of antioxidant ability of melatonin and serotonin by the DMPD and CUPRAC methods as trolox equivalent

Open access

Abstract

Melatonin (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is the chief secretory product of the pineal gland and synthesized enzymatically from serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine). These indoleamine derivatives play an important role in the prevention of oxidative damage. In the present study, DMPD radical scavenging and cupric ion (Cu(2+)) reducing ability of melatonin and serotonin as trolox equivalent antioxidant activity (TEAC) was investigated. Melatonin and serotonin demonstrated 73.5 and 127.4 microg/mL trolox equivalent DMPD( radical+) scavenging activity at the concentration of 100 microg/mL. Also, at the same concentration, melatonin and serotonin showed 14.41 and 116.09 microg/mL trolox equivalent cupric ion (Cu(2+)) reducing ability. These results showed that melatonin and serotonin had marked DMPD(radical+) radical scavenging and cupric ions (Cu(2+)) reducing ability. Especially, serotonin had higher DMPD radical scavenging and cupric ions (Cu(2+)) reducing activity than melatonin because of its phenolic group.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
