Antioxidant Performance Testing
Background
Antioxidants play an important role in neutralizing free radicals and preventing cellular damage caused by oxidative stress. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can lead to a variety of health problems, including premature aging, chronic disease, and inflammation. Through antioxidant performance testing, manufacturers and consumers can understand the efficacy of these products and make confident choices. With our antioxidant performance testing services, we provide comprehensive analysis to assess the effectiveness and performance of antioxidant products. Whether you are a manufacturer looking to validate your product claims or a consumer seeking high-quality antioxidant supplements, our testing process ensures that you have accurate information to make informed decisions.
Solutions
- Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) Assessment
This test measures the overall antioxidant capacity of a product. It assesses the ability of antioxidants to scavenge and neutralize free radicals. The TAC test provides a comprehensive analysis of a product's antioxidant capacity and helps manufacturers and consumers understand its potential health benefits.
- Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) Test
The ORAC test specifically evaluates a product's ability to neutralize oxygen-related free radicals. It measures the ability of the antioxidants in a product to inhibit oxidative damage caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS.) ORAC testing is particularly important for evaluating the effectiveness of antioxidant supplements and functional foods.
- Free Radical Scavenging Tests
These tests evaluate a product's ability to scavenge and eliminate specific types of free radicals, such as DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) free radicals or ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) free radicals). The free radical scavenging test provides insight into the efficacy of the product against specific oxidative stressors.
- Lipid Peroxidation Inhibition Test
This test evaluates a product's ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation, a process that can lead to cell membrane damage and oxidative stress. By measuring the extent to which a product inhibits lipid peroxidation, the test evaluates the product's potential to prevent oxidative damage in cellular and lipid-rich environments.
Deliverables
- Detailed Test Reports: Comprehensive reports are available outlining test methods, parameters and results. The report includes quantitative measurements, statistical analysis and interpretation to enable manufacturers and consumers to understand the antioxidant performance of a product.
- Comparative Analysis: Where applicable, comparative analyses can be provided to compare the antioxidant performance of the product under test with industry standards, competitive products or specific regulatory requirements.
