DCFH-DA (2,7-dichlorofuorescin diacetate) is a fluorescent probe without fluorescence that can freely cross the membrane. After entering the cell, it can be hydrolyzed by intracellular esterase to form DCFH (dichlorofluorescin). In the presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS), DCFH is oxidized to DCF (dichlorofluorescein) which is a strong green fluorescent substance that cannot penetrate the cell membrane. DCF has a maximum wave peak near the excitation wavelength of 502 nm and the emission wavelength of 525 nm, and the intensity is proportional to the level of intracellular reactive oxygen species.

GSSG is reduced to GSH by glutathione reductase, and GSH can react with DTNB to produce GSSG and yellow TNB. The amount of total glutathione (GSSG+GSH) determines the amount of yellow TNB. Thus the total glutathione can be calculated by measuring the OD value at 412 nm. The content of GSSG can be determined by first removing GSH from the sample with appropriate reagent and then using the above reaction principle.

Total cholesterol includes free cholesterol and cholesterol esters. Cholesterol ester can be hydrolyzed by cholesterol esterase to produce cholesterol and free fatty acid. Cholesterol is oxidized by cholesterol oxidase to produce △4-cholestenone and hydrogen peroxide. In the presence of 4-aminoamylpyridine and phenol, hydrogen peroxide catalyze peroxidase to form red quinone compounds of benzoquinone imine phenizone.The color depth of the generated quinone is directly proportional to the cholesterol content. The absorbance values of the standard tube and the sample tube are measured respectively, and the cholesterol content in the sample can be calculated.

AST/GOT enables alpha-ketoglutaric acid and aspartic acid to displace amino and keto groups to form glutamic acid and oxaloacetic acid. Oxaloacetic acid can decarboxylate itself to form Pyroracemic acid during the reaction. Pyroracemic acid reacted with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine(DNPH) to form 2,4, dinitrophenylhydrazone showing reddish brown in alkaline solution. Measure the OD values and calculate the enzyme activity.

The activity of SOD was measured by WST-1 method in this kit and the principles of the WST-1 is as follows. Xanthine Oxidase (XO) can catalyze WST-1 react with O2.- to generate a water-soluble formazan dye. SOD can catalyze the disproportionation of superoxide anions, so the reaction can be inhibited by SOD, and the activity of SOD is negatively correlated with the amount of formazan dye. Therefore, the activity of SOD can be determined by the colorimetric analysis of WST-1 products.

Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) can promote the reaction of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and reduced glutathione to produce H2O and oxidized glutathione (GSSG). The activity of glutathione peroxidase can be expressed by the rate of enzymatic reaction. The activity of glutathione can be calculated by measuring the consumption of reduced glutathione. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and reduced glutathione can react without catalysis of GSH-Px, so the portion of GSH reduction by non-enzymatic reaction should be subtracted. GSH can react with dinitrobenzoic acid to produce 5-thio-dinitrobenzoic acid anion, which showed a stable yellow color. Measure the absorbance at 412nm, and calculate the amount of GSH.

A variety of antioxidant macromolecules, antioxidant molecules and enzymes in a system can eliminate all kinds of reactive oxygen species and prevent oxidative stress induced by reactive oxygen species. The total level reflect the total antioxidant capacity in the system. Many antioxidants in the body can reduce Fe3+ to Fe2+ and Fe2+ can form stable complexes with phenanthroline substance. The antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) can be calculated by measuring the absorbance at 520 nm.
