Description
Summary:The variety of indices and lack of uniformity in research demonstrate that a close monitoring of reactive oxygen metabolite (ROM) release is required. [...]several easy-to-use techniques have been developed, including histochemistry [2] and colorimetric assays [3,4], which are employed in studies of patients with IBD, but all lack sufficient sensitivity and specificity [1]. [...]the thiol/disulfide ratio could be used for evaluation of response to therapy and to get insight into the pathophysiology of the disease.
