ABTS Free Radical Scavenging Capacity Assay Kit

Detection Device :

Microplate reader

Application :

ABTS method can be used to determine the antioxidant capacity of hydrophilic and lipophilic substances, and it is the most widely used indirect detection method. ABTS is oxidized to form a stable blue-green cation ABTS radical with the largest absorption peak at 405 nm or 734 nm. After the tested substance is added into ABTS free radical solution, the antioxidant component can react with ABTS free radical to make the reaction system fade, and the absorbance of 405 nm decreases. In a certain range, the change of absorbance is directly proportional to the degree of free radical removal. In this kit, the sample's ability to scavenge ABTS radicals is reflected by measuring the degree of absorbance decrease.
