Dehydroascorbic Acid Assay Kit (Spectrophotometry)

Dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) is the oxidized form of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C, AsA) . AsA serves as an important physiological indicator in plant cells. Changes in AsA content, redox status (AsA/DHA ratio), and the activity of enzymes related to its synthesis and metabolism are involved in plant responses to a range of environmental stresses. DHA is the reversible oxidized form of AsA. Within organisms, DHA and ascorbic acid together constitute a redox system, functioning as an electron acceptor.
