Product Details

The OxiSelect™ Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) Assay measures the total antioxidant capacity of biomolecules from a variety of samples via a SET mechanism. In the presence of antioxidants, copper(II) is reduced to copper(I). In turn, the copper(I) ions react with a chromogen to produce a color with maximum absorbance at 490nm.
