the area of oxidative stress evaluation, now included in Panel Carratelli. Panel Carratelli is the integrated analytical approach that allows the global assessment of oxidative stress by the use of 13 tests that complete each other. These tests can be divided in two groups, one for the evaluation of the pro-oxidant status and the other for the antioxidant status, and both can be applied to Human, Veterinary and Agri-food sector.
Useful to: detecting conditions of lack of thiolic antioxidants and in monitoring the effectiveness of formulations based on active ingredients containing sulfhydryl groups.
What Evaluates: the measurement of thiol groups (lipoic acid, glutathione, cysteine) which represent a qualitatively significant component of the plasma antioxidant barrier since they oppose the propagation phase of the radical processes.
Matrix: Serum or plasma fresh
Sector of application: Human and Veterinary
IVD/FRUO: In vitro diagnostics
Instrumentation: FREE Systems, manual photometers, microplate readers
