Total radical-trapping parameter

Total radical trapping parameter (TRAP) assay is widely used in investigations and has various modifications [45-48]. This method presumes antioxidants capability to react with peroxyl radical 2.2-azobis (2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH). TRAP modifications differ in methods of registering analytical signal. Most often the final stage of analysis include peroxyl radical AAPH reaction with luminescent (luminol), fluorescent (dichlorofluorescein-diace-tate, DCFH-DA) or other optically active substrate. Trolox is often used as a standard. 

More recently, studies on the absorption of flavonoid glycosides typical of berries and grapes are reported. Lapidot et al. (1998) traced anthocyanins in human urine after the intake of 300 ml red wine, corresponding to 218 mg of anthocyanins. Totals of 1.5-5.1% of the anthocyanins were recovered in the urine within 12 h after wine consumption, two compounds were unchanged, whereas other compounds seemed to have undergone molecular modifications. The anthocyanin levels of the urine reached a peak within 6 h of consumption. Serafini et al. (1998) tested the effects of the intake of the nonalcoholic fraction of red or white wine on plasma antioxidant capacity, measured as total radical-trapping parameter (TRAP), and on...

Other measurements of antioxidant activity include FRAP (ferric reducing-antioxidant power) (123-126), TRAP (total radical-trapping antioxidant parameter) (123, 127), phycoerythrin assay (128, 129), and test of metal chelating capacity (130, 131), among others. Reviews on methods for testing antioxidant activity have been published (9, 12).

Com oil phenols have been studied with respect to their potential to scavenge the free radicals, the peroxyl radicals, the superoxide radicals, etc. The free radical scavenging activity of the phenolic acids using model free radicals such as l,7-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH ), or ABTS (2,2 -azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt cation radical) is often measured. TEAC (Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity), FRAP (Ferric-reducing antioxidant capacity) and TRAP (total-radical-trapping antioxidant parameter) of the com oil are also used in order to obtain additional information, necessary to investigate the relation between the antioxidant intake and the oxidative stress related diseases (Stratil et al., 2008 Ceto et al., 2014 Apak et al., 2007). 

These may remain trapped for some time in the system and are easily detected by their ESR signal. Their ultimate fate depends to some extent on the nature of the irradiated substance and also on several physical parameters of the experiment, such as temperature, dose rate, and total dose. The two main reactions involving peroxidic radicals are ... 

Oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) and total trapping antioxidant parameter (TRAP) are two ass s based on competition between an antioxidant and a substrate for peroxyl radicals (Cao Prior, 1998 Cabrini et al., 2001).
