Abstract

The antioxidant capacity of capsules containing blueberry based products sold in drugstores owing to the high antioxidant capacity were analysed using special electrochemical method based on a superoxide dismutase (SOD) biosensor. The results obtained were compared with spectrophotometric and fluorimetric (ORAC) method. The antioxidant capacity of these integrators was compared with that one of fresh blueberry.
