Natalia Sazhina, Vyacheslav Misin and Elena Korotkova

The total amount of antioxidants and their activity with respect to oxygen and its radicals are measured in water extract of mint peppery (Mentha piperita L.) by two electrochemical methods: ammetric and voltammetric. Mechanisms of interaction of antioxidants with oxygen and its radicals have been investigated
