Antioxidant Methods: A Guideline for Understanding and Determining Antioxidant
Capacity summarizes the importance of antioxidants as a class of compounds within
numerous areas of science and technology. The chapters elucidate diverse methodologies
for assessing the antioxidant capacity of an antioxidant, while also exploring the correlation
between its structural attributes and overall performance. Chapters include descriptions of
protocols used to measure antioxidant capacity by different methods, highlighting experimental
steps, bottlenecks, expected outcomes, advantages, limitations, and more.
This is the perfect reference for biomedical science researchers looking for the right method
for determining antioxidant capacity through the structure and functionalities of the compound,
as well as the mechanisms involved in the antioxidant action.

Francisco Avelino
Francisco Avelino is Assistant Professor at Federal Institute of Ceará (IFCE) in the Physical
Chemistry subarea since 2019. He holds a Ph.D. in Chemistry from the Federal University of Ceará (2019), Master in Chemistry from Federal University of Ceara´ (2017), and Bachelor of Chemistry from Federal University of Ceará (2014) with a period at the University of Coimbra (2012—2013). His research focuses on materials chemistry, polymer chemistry, and solution chemistry, including biomass valorization, biorefinery, lignin chemistry, lignin valorization, fabrication of biocomposites, and the determination of thermodynamic, structural, and spectral properties of electrolyte and
nonelectrolyte solutions. He is also the founder and leader of Biopolymer and Advanced Materials Group (BioMat), Coordinator of Research and Extension of IFCE Campus Iguatu, and Research Fellow of FUNCAP (BPI fellowship) and CNPq (DT 2 fellowship).
