OxiSelect™ Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) Assay Kit

• Measures total antioxidant capacity based on reduction of copper(II) to copper(I)
• Suitable for use with plasma, serum, urine, cell lysates, tissue homogenates and food extracts
• Works with a wide variety of antioxidants

The OxiSelect™ Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) Assay measures the total antioxidant capacity of biomolecules from a variety of samples via a SET mechanism. In the presence of antioxidants, copper(II) is reduced to copper(I). In turn, the copper(I) ions react with a chromogen to produce a color with maximum absorbance at 490nm.
