General Objective (Technical Description):Evaluating the compensatory response to oxidative stress and its consequent damage in two or more conditions/states and then compare them.
Description: This service has been developed specifically to evaluate the fish’s response to conditions that produce oxidative stress. It functions by quantifying GSH/GSSG variation and membrane damage (lipoperoxidation).
The service includes:
- Sample taking
- Quantifying the RedOx state and membrane damage
- Results analyzed by Dr. Ana María Sandino
Applications:
- Evaluation of diets that favor a good oxidative balance.
- Evaluation of antioxidants (vitamins, carotenes, enzymes, etc.) that help maintain the oxidative balance.
- As a complement for the evaluation of environmental conditions in recirculation fish farming.
- Evaluation of oxidative balance related to bath treatments.
- Evaluation of fish’s response to different treatments/handling.
Status: Service is available. For a price quote please contact camila.wilkens@usach.cl.
