Determination of antioxidant capacity in some foods by oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC)

Heavy metals and arsenic concentrations in water, agricultural soil, and rice in Ngan Son district, Bac Kan province, Vietnam, 2021
Oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay has been applied to determine the Hydrophilic – ORAC index in food. The method measures antioxidant scavenging activity against peroxyl radical induced by 2,2′-azobis(2-amidino-propane) dihydrochloride (AAPH) at 37ºC, used fluororescein as the fluorescent probe.

The Major Source of Antioxidants Intake From Typical Diet Among Rural Farmers in North-eastern Japan in the 1990s

Journal of Epidemiology, 2021
Background: Previous Japanese studies have led to the erroneous conclusion of antioxidant capacity (AOC) intakes of the overall Japanese diet due to limitations in the number and types of food measured, especially in rice and seafood intake.
