Use of Biomarkers of Oxidative Stress in Research Studies1,2

EXPANDED ABSTRACT

KEY WORDS: * biomarkers * oxidative stress * antioxidants

In research studies, biomarkers can be employed to reflect environmental prooxidant exposures and dietary antioxidant intake or to serve as a surrogate measure of a disease process (1,2). To be truly useful, the biomarker must have some degree of predictive validity, but full substantiation of this relation still is lacking (3-5).
