ABSTRACT:
A method of determining intracellular levels of water-soluble and fat-soluble antioxidants. Peripheral blood mononuclear cell lysates are prepared from an individual and analyzed by HPLC, either directly or after extraction with organic solvents to extract fat-soluble antioxidants. The levels of antioxidants are compared to normal levels as an indication of the overall oxidative health of the individual.
