Antioxidant-the word itself is magic. Using the antioxidant concept as a spearhead in
proposed mechanisms for staving off so-called “free-radical” reactions, the rush is on to mine …

Free radicals pose a serious threat to tissues and vital organs, especially membrane lipids,
proteins and nucleic acids of cells. Overproduction of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species …

Free radicals are well documented for playing a dual role in our body as both deleterious
and beneficial species. In low/moderate concentrations free radicals are involved in normal …

Cellular damage or oxidative injury arising from free radicals or reactive oxygen species
(ROS) now appears the fundamental mechanism underlying a number of human …

Reactive oxygen species are the intermediates that are formed during the normal metabolic
process which are effectively neutralized by the antioxidant system of the body. Any …

Oxidation is an integral part of aerobic processes of life. It involves the transfer of electrons
or hydrogen via a chemical reaction from a substance to an oxidizing agent leading to the …

Abiotic environmental stress causes plants and animals to produce excessive superoxide
radicals that are extremely toxic and reactive, thereby causing injury to tissue resulting in the …

Cellular damage or oxidative injury arising from free radicals or reactive oxygen species
(ROS) now appears the fundamental mechanism underlying a number of human …

The balance between oxidation and reduction is important for maintaining a healthy
biological system. Oxidative stress results from an imbalance between excessive formation …

Natural antioxidants are the plants-and other living organism-derived compounds with a
strong potential to inhibit oxidative stress by controlling the formation of free radicals …
