A Device for the Semiautomatic Determination of Oxygen-Radical Absorbance Capacity
Analytical Biochemistry, 2000The oxygen-radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay has become a standard method to quantify the antioxidative properties of phytonutrients in fruit and vegetable extracts. However, it is usually not possible to determine directly the contribution of specific phytonutrients to the total ORAC value.

Epidemiological studies have shown that phytochemicals in fruits and vegetables may decrease the incidence of cancer. The antioxidant activity of phytochemicals may be partially responsible for the reduced cancer risk. In this study, the antioxidant activity of several phytochemicals was compared using two different antioxidant assays: the oxygen ...

A new method is proposed for the evaluation of oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC). The current fluorescence-based ORAC assay (ORAC-FL) is an indirect method that monitors the antioxidant's ability to protect the fluorescent probe from free radical-mediated damage, and an azo-radical initiator, AAPH (2,2-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride),

Various radical-scavenging activities (RSA) assessment assays are based on discrete mechanisms and on using different radical sources. Few studies have analyzed the structural significance of flavonoids in their peroxyl radical activities in the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay.

Oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) and exercise-induced oxidative stress in trotters
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2005Strenuous exercise is a potent inducer of oxidative stress, which has been suggested to be associated with disturbances in muscle homeostasis, fatigue and injury. There is no comprehensive or uniform view of the antioxidant status in horses. We have previously shown that moderate exercise induces protein oxidation in trotters. The aim of this study was

An improved method of oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay has been developed and validated using fluorescein (3',6'-dihydroxyspiro[isobenzofuran-1[3H],9'[9H]-xanthen]-3-one) as the fluorescent probe. Our results demonstrate that fluorescein (FL) is superior to B-phycoerythrin.

Dietary oxygen radical absorbance capacity as a predictor of bone mineral density
Nutrition Research, 2002Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured at the middle phalange of the non-dominant hand by dual x-ray absorptiometry in a random sample of 123 women aged 19 to 63 years. Monthly intake of foods with high Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) was obtained using a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), ORAC scores were calculated, and lifestyle factors ...

Ovotransferrin-derived peptides showed synergistic effects with vitamin C, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), and caffeic acid, but not quercetin in our previous report. In this study, we further investigated the interactions between ovotransferrin-derived peptides and teas, based on the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay. Our results showed

The aim of this research was to: (1) develop a reliable extraction procedure and assay to determine antioxidant activity in meat products, and (2) assess the effect of beef finishing system (forage-finished: alfalfa, pearl millet or mixed pastures vs. concentrate-finished) on longissimus muscle antioxidant activity.
