Abstract: Disclosed is a single-use disposable article for determining the concentration of thiol compounds in a sample of fluid, a single-use disposable test strip for determining the concentration of thiol compounds in a sample of a fluid from a mammalian subject, a single-use disposable test strip for determining the risk that a mammalian subject is suffering from a particular malady, and a description of how to make and use the article and test strips.

Abstract: Compounds useful as nutritional supplements, antioxidants, heavy metal chelators and/or as intermediates for producing other related compounds with like uses have a formula: where R1 is an aromatic backbone and R2 is a sulfur containing ligand.

Abstract: Methods and pharmaceutical formulations for ameliorating heavy metal toxicity and/or oxidative stress are disclosed, comprising administering pharmaceutically effective amounts of ligands according to the present disclosure.

Abstract: A method of supplementing a diet and ameliorating oxidative stress in a mammal includes administering a pharmaceutically effective amount of lipid soluble, hydrophobic active compounds having a chemical structure: wherein R1 is an aromatic backbone and R2 is a sulfur containing ligand. Through formation of disulfide linkages other moieties can be attached to R2 converting the hydrophobic base into a water soluble entity, for ease of delivery, which can be reconverted back to the original compound by biochemical reduction in the blood stream.

Abstract: Disclosed are compositions and methods useful for the rapid and facile simultaneous detection of malodorous bacterial metabolites in samples of expired breath and other fluids. The invention enables estimation, by simple visual inspection and comparison against standards, of the concentration of polyamines and volatile sulfur compounds in the micromolar to millimolar range.
