Abstract
The method for assaying the SOD (super oxide dismutase) activity in liquid medium is based on the activation of self-oxidization, by SOD activity, of a reactive agent having the general formula (I) wherein either n is 1 or 2, R.sup.1 is --OR.sup.4 or --NR.sup.5 R.sup.6 ; R.sup.2 is H, --OR.sup.4, alkyl (1-6C), --CH.sub.2 -- or --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --, to form a ring by binding to the phenyl substituent, at meta with respect to R.sup.1 ; and R.sup.3 is H, alkyl (1-6C) or --OR.sup.4 (if R.sup.2 is different from --OR.sup.4); with R.sup.4 being H or alkyl (1-6C); R.sup.5 being H, alkyl (1-6C), --CH.sub.2 COOH, --C.sub.6 H.sub.5 COOH or --C.sub.6 H.sub.5 SO.sub.3 H; and R.sup.6 is H, alkyl (1-6C) or --CH.sub.2 COOH; or n is 1, R.sup.1 is --OR.sup.4, R.sup.2 is --CH.sub.2 --O--, in order to form a ring by bonding of O with the phenyl substituent, at meta with respect to R.sup.1 ; and R.sup.3 is H or --OR.sup.4. Application to assaying the SOD activity in a sample, specially a biological sample, particularly by a single measurement and one calibrating curve.
