ABSTRACT:
A non-invasive method for the determination of oxidative stress in a patient by urinalysis is disclosed. The method comprises quantifying the level of o,o'-dityrosine in a sample of the urine of said patient and comparing with the corresponding level of said compound in a normal or control sample, whereby a substantially elevated level of said o,o'-dityrosine is indicative of oxidative stress in said patient.
