  • Method and apparatus for measuring lipid peroxidation in biological fluids and suspensions of tissues
    Patent number: 6372508
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for measuring the lipid peroxidation extent in biological fluids and suspensions of tissues, in which a specifically prepared lipids containing sample is exposed to heat so as to induce thermo-chemiluminescence light which is emitted by the sample and is enhanced to an amount which can be detected by a special purpose photo detector The measurement of the light allows to conclude about the content of peroxides and subsequently to obtain accurate assessment of lipid peroxidation .
