Bioquochem (BQC) is a Spanish Biotech company that offers expertise and products for measuring the total antioxidant capacity, and/or the oxidative damage in agri-food, beverages, cosmetics and biomedical samples. Some of the analyses the company has developed are: Total Antioxidant Capacity (enzymatic and non-enzymatic), Antioxidant compounds (polyphenols, anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, glutathione, ascorbic acid…), Biomolecules Oxidative Damage (lipids and proteins), Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), Histology Staining Kits Through its sample analysis service, the company has extensive experience applying their products across diverse matrices (biological fluids, food and beverages, antioxidant extracts, plant-based materials, etc.). They also offer custom assay development services to address specific client challenges. The company has also developed a portable electrochemical device for measuring the total antioxidant capacity in a wide variety of aqueous and organic samples. This electrochemical device is suitable for on-site analysis and allows the determination of total antioxidant capacity in less than one minute using a drop of sample. BQC will soon launch a new accessory for this device to measure in oils. BQC's products are very fast in getting results: The speed in obtaining results is essential, as it allows for effective decision-making and optimization of production processes. The company is comitted to making researcher's and user's life easier: BQC kits and portable devices are designed with simple protocols to reduce analysis time and minimize human error.
