ViškelisSummaryAntioxidant is a substance that effectively reduces pro-oxidant resulting in compoundswith low or no toxicity. Interest in protective properties of natural antioxidants of plant originand their application in prophylaxis is increasing. Preliminary researches on antioxidant activityof herbal raw materials are carried out by in vitro methods. The most popular methods based onsingle electron transfer (SET) are assessment of DPPH radical, ABTS radical-cation scavenging,ferric (FRAP) and cupric (CUPRAC) ion reducing antioxidant power. The most commonly,detection of change in spectrophotometric visual light absorption is used. It’s a simple, reliableand suitable method for evaluation of antioxidant properties of pure compounds and foridentification of structure-activity relationship. In complex mixtures such as plant extracts andfood matrixes spectrophotometric methods evaluate total antioxidant activity of all compoundspresent in a sample and cannot evaluate the contribution of separate compounds to overallactivity. High-resolution online assays are used for a rapid separation of active antioxidantcompounds. These assays combine HPLC separation and post-column reaction detection. HPLCpost-column assays assess antioxidant properties of separate compounds and their contributionto the overall antioxidant activity of complex mixtures. HPLC post-column assays provide reliable,accurate and reproducible assessment of quality of plant extracts by determining markersof qualitative and quantitative antioxidant activity of biologically active compounds.
