Using NAD+ as hydrogen acceptor, LDH catalyzes the conversion of both lactate and NAD+ into pyruvic acid and NADH respectively. 1-Methoxy-5-methyl phenazine methyl sulfate (PMS) transfers hydrogen from NADH to NBT which deoxidize into purple chromogenic substrate. Lactic acid content can be calculated by measuring the OD value at 530 nm.

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.

NO is easily oxidized to form NO2- in vivo or in aqueous solution, and a reddish azo compound is formed with the color developing agent, and the concentration of the azo compound is linearly related to the concentration of NO. The concentration of NO can be calculated indirectly by measuring the OD value at 550 nm.

Glucose oxidase can catalyze the oxidation of glucose to gluconic acid to produce hydrogen peroxide. In the presence of chromogenic oxygen receptors, peroxidase catalyzes hydrogen peroxide and oxidizes pigment sources to form colored substances. Measure the OD value at 505 nm and glucose content can be calculated indirectly.

The superoxide anion free radical (O2-) can be produced by xanthine and xanthine oxidase reaction system, O2- oxidize hydroxylamine to form nitrite, it turn to purple under the reaction of developer. When the measured samples containing SOD, the SOD can specifically inhibit superoxide anion free radical (O2-). The inhibitory effect of SOD can reduce the formation of nitrite, the absorbance value of sample tube is lower than control tube. Calculate the SOD of sample according to the computational formula.

CM, VLDL and LDL coagulate in a polyanionic environment to form a polymer and are masked by the polymer. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) form soluble compounds under the action of a surfactant, so that HDL-C can directly react with enzyme reagents containing cholesterol esterase (CE) and cholesterol oxidase (CO) to produce hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is catalyzed by oxidase (POD) in the presence of 4-aminoantipyrine (4-AA) and phenol (T-OOS) to form a red quinone compound. The coloured substance have a maximum absorption peak at 546 nm. Measure the OD value at 546 nm and the HDL-C content in the sample can be calculated.

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.
