Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity
ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity : 活性酸素吸収能力)法は,米国国立老化研究所のCaoおよび米国農務省(USDA)のPriorらにより開発された抗酸化評価法である.生体成分の酸化反応に類似した反応様式を含む評価系として着目されている.米国では,326品目の果実および野菜を中心とした食品の抗酸化能をORAC法により評価し,USDAのホームページで公開すると共に,ORAC法をAssociation of Official Analytical Chemists(AOAC)に提案し,標準法として世界に普及させる方向にある.また,飲料やサプリメントへのORAC値の表記が実際に進んでいる.ORAC法の長所としては,1 ...

Automated assay of oxygen radical absorbance capacity with the COBAS FARA II
Abstract Reactive oxygen species are of interest in biology and medicine because of evidence relating them to aging and disease processes. A relatively simple but sensitive and reliable method for quantifying the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) of antioxidants in biological tissues has been automated for use with the COBAS FARA
