In Vitro Methods of Assay of Antioxidants: An Overview
Abstract
With the current upsurge of interest in the function, measurement of efficacy and use of natural antioxidants, testing of antioxidant activity has received much attention. Several methods are being used, both in vitro and in vivo, to determine the antioxidant activity of natural antioxidants. Although, there is a great multiplicity of the methods used for the determination of antioxidant activity, there is no approved standardized in vitro method to evaluate the antioxidants of interest. This article presents a critical review of the various in vitro methods used for the determination of antioxidant activity and their merits and limitations.

“Therefore, and based on their mode of action, the antioxidants can be classified as primary, secondary or co-antioxidants.”
From Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Activities of Essential Oils: A Short Review (2010) · cites this paper as [28]
In the citing paper
“This can be performed by deactivating high energy species (singlet oxygen); absorbing UV light; scavenging of oxygen; chelating metal that catalyses free radical reaction, or inhibiting enzymes, such as peroxidases, NADPH oxidase, xanthine oxidase, among other oxidative enzymes [28].”

In the citing paper
“Secondary anti-oxidants react with the initiating radicals (or inhibit the initiating enzymes), or reduce the oxygen level (without generating reactive radical species).”
From Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Activities of Essential Oils: A Short Review (2010) · cites this paper as [28]
In the citing paper
“Primary antioxidants are able to donate a hydrogen atom rapidly to a lipid radical, forming a new radical, which is more stable.”

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.
