Overview

Antioxidants are compounds that help prevent or slow down cell damage caused by oxidative stress. Oxidative stress can be caused by a variety of factors such as air pollution, cigarette smoke, and UV light. Antioxidants protect cells from this damage by neutralizing the free radicals that create oxidative stress. The activity of an antioxidant in vitro is assessed by measuring its ability to reduce the number of free radicals present in a sample. This helps determine how well a compound works as an antioxidant in a laboratory environment. Antioxidant activity in vitro is an important tool for researchers to understand the effectiveness of a potential antioxidant in living systems. In addition, the information gathered from these studies can be used to develop new treatments and therapies to protect the body from oxidative damage.
