A Paper-Based Assay for the Determination of Total Antioxidant Capacity in Human Serum Samples.

Determining the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of biological samples is a valuable approach to measuring health status under oxidative stress conditions, such as infertility and type 2 diabetes. The Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) assay is the most common approach to evaluating TAC in biological matrices. This assay is typically performed in clinical settings on a microtiter plate using a plate reader.
