Catalog
04-BI-5007
The OxyStat ELISA measures the total peroxide concentration in EDTA-Plasma and Serum, utilizing a simple assay procedure. The peroxide concentration is determined by reaction of the Biological peroxides in the sample with peroxidase and a subsequent color reaction using TMB as substrate. Results show a direct correlation between free radicals and circulating biological peroxides, thus allowing for the characterization of the oxidative status in biological samples.

Cells and tissues are sensitive to oxidative stress, caused by the formation of free radicals. If not deactivated by
antioxidants, organic peroxides and hydroperoxides are the first reaction products between cellular constituents and
free radicals or other reactive oxygen derivates.
The determination of the oxidative status / oxidative stress is essential in today's medical research and diagnostics.
Methods used so far were either expensive (HPLC), or detected only degradation products of polyunsaturated fatty
acids, like TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances).
The Biomedica OxyStat assay measures the total peroxide concentration of a sample, utilizing a quick and simple
assay procedure. Results show a direct correlation between free radicals and circulating biological peroxides and
thus allow the characterization of the oxidative status in biological samples.
