ORAC Assay on the FLUOstar OPTIMA to Determine Antioxidant Capacity
11 Aug 2009

This application note shows the ORAC assay is a tool used to determine the antioxidant capacity of any substance. With the help of the FLUOstar OPTIMA and its easy-to-use software, the antioxidant capacity of a substance can be directly estimated by comparison to the standard curve of Trolox®. The progress of each reaction can be followed in realtime using the current state option. Furthermore, the use of onboard injectors allow for consistent and reproducible data.
