STUDY TO ESTABLISH THE ACCEPTANCE RANGE FOR PEROXYL RADICALS SCAVENGER CAPACITY OF NATURAL SOD.
In the context of an emerging market of food supplements, the proven quality of the antioxidant products should be the main criteria for using them. The production process has to be carefully controlled and complementary tests are needed to demonstrate the correspondence between real and declared properties of final product. Using well characterized compounds with proven antioxidant activity in biological systems as reference brings a plus of rigorously to the testing protocol. The aim of this study was to determine the acceptance range for the antioxidant (peroxyl radicals scavenger) capacity of "Natural SOD" by using for comparison ascorbic acid (vitamin C). The established acceptance range complete our previous results concerning the antioxidant capacity of Natural SOD using validated ORAC method and creates premises for supplementary checking of the batches in the current production and improving the product quality.
