Measurement of antioxidants in human blood plasma.
The concentration of antioxidants in human blood plasma is important in investigating and understanding the relationship between diet, oxidant stress, and human disease. The HPLC-EC technique combines selectivity with high sensitivity for measuring both water- and lipid-soluble antioxidants. The excellent sensitivity of the methods described here allows one to measure a panel of antioxidants in a small volume of plasma.
