Investigation of antioxidant and catalytic properties of some biologically active substances by voltammetry

Abstract: Antioxidants play a major role in protecting biological systems against many incurable diseases. The biological activity of 12 plant aqueous-alcohol extracts, some standard antioxidants (vitamin C, glucose, resorcinol, and catechol), Na(2)SO(3), humic acids, phthalocyanines, and chlorophyll have been investigated in this work together with evaluation of their influence on the kinetics of the oxygen electroreduction. Finally the use of these substances for prophylactic purposes has been recommended.

“…This approach was based on the voltammetry of immobilized particles (VIMP), a methodology which provides the electrochemical response of sparingly soluble solids attached to inert electrodes in contact with suitable electrolytes [23][24][25]. Conventional solutionphase [26][27][28][29][30] and solid-state [31,32] electrochemical techniques have been applied for testing the antioxidative capacity of samples from fruits and vegetables.…”
