Suggestions that oxidative stress plays a role in
human diseases have led to the proposal that health might be
improved by increased dietary intake of antioxidants. Plant-de-
rived antioxidants, such as flavonoids or rosemary extracts, are
increasingly proposed as important dietary antioxidant factors,
and foods rich in antioxidants are also receiving attention. Be-
fore widescale usage of natural and synthetic antioxidants can
be suggested, it is necessary to establish the properties of such
molecules. Assays for characterizing the potential proox-
idant/antioxidant actions of food additives, antioxidant supple-
ments, antioxidant drug molecules, and nutrient components
have been developed for this purpose.
