Photochemiluminescence
The
method
of photosensitised
chemiluminescence
is characterised
by speed,
accuracy,
cost-efficiency
and environment-friendliness.
It allows
both water
and lipidsoluble
substances
to be
examined.
Unlike
the use
of other
methods,
this method
is not
tied to
specific
pH-values
and temperatures.
The measuring
method
Photochemiluminescence,
allows
the quantification
of the
antioxidative
status
of the
organism
and the
degree
of oxidative
damage
of biological
substrates
under
various
pathological
conditions
and under
relevant
types
of therapy.
To
determine
the antioxidative
capacity
of lipid-soluble
or water-soluble
samples
based
on the
method
of chemiluminescence
(PCL)
, the
PHOTOCHEM®
was used.
Other
methods
that would
be applicable
are either
very expensive
or only
detect
the degradation
products
of polyunsaturated
fatty
acids.
The PCL
method,
however,
is fast,
easy to
handle
and it
does quantify
the total
antioxidative
capacity
of the
sample.
Industrial
applications
of this
technique
include
the quality
control
of technological
processes,
the examination
of the
long-term
stability
of products
and the
screening
of new
antioxidative
substances.
