Abstract The harmful effects of the reactive species may be due to the increase in their steady state
concentration either by the enhancement of their production rates and/or the decrease of their consumption
rate by antioxidant activity. The ascorbyl radical (A•
) can be considered as a final product of radical oxidative
transformations of ascorbate (AH-). The ratio A•
content/AH- content (A•
/AH-) has been widely used as an
interesting tool to estimate mild to moderate oxidative transformations, providing a quick and simple method
of diagnosis of stress in the hydrophilic cellular medium. The aim of this work was More >
