The antioxidant activity/capacity levels of biological fluids and foods are measured for the diagnosis and the treatment of oxidative stress-associated diseases in clinical biochemistry, and for meaningful comparison of the antioxidant content of foods. Currently, there is no "total antioxidant" as a nutritional index available for food labeling and biological fluids due to the lack of standardized quantitative methods.
