Antioxidants are important in the study of various disease states, nutrition, and general well-being.
We have recently expanded our selection of tools to help facilitate your antioxidant research, whether it is measuring endogenous antioxidants, the antioxidant capacity of certain biomolecules, or the efficacy of potential antioxidant compounds.
Our unique new OxiSelect™ Cellular Antioxidant Activity Assay Kit measures the efficacy of antioxidant samples added to cells. This provides a more physiologically relevant environment to study potential antioxidant compounds.
Oxidative stress is a physiological condition where there is an imbalance between concentrations of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidants. Superoxide dismutase and catalase are two important antioxidant enzymes that help eliminate ROS from cells.

Antioxidant Capacity Assay Kits
Although the damage caused by reactive oxygen species is extensively used to monitor the effects of oxidative stress, it is often helpful to evaluate the antioxidant capacity of biological fluids, cells, and extracts against specific radicals or against total ROS.
Glutathione has many roles within the body including its role as an antioxidant. Our OxiSelect™ Total Glutathione Assay Kit is a quantitative assay for measuring the total concentration of glutathione, which includes both oxidized and reduced forms (GSSG and GSH, respectively).
It is with great pride and immense pleasure that we introduce the Creative Bioarray QualiStem® Alkaline Phosphatase Live Staining Kit which provides a fast, simple and sensitive method for AP detection without fixing the cells. The reagent is nontoxic to the cells and the fluorescent signal will be discharged from the cells by exocytosis completely within two hours after removal of the staining solution, allowing the cell to be used for follow-up studies
Since the Monkeypox was first detected on 7 May 2022 in the United Kingdom, more and more cases have been confirmed in non-endemic countries, Creative Biogene decided to do our share for supporting the scientific community against this disease and would like to introduce our Monkeypox Virus Real Time PCR Kit.
