Trolox is a water-soluble derivative of vitamin E, widely used in biochemical and pharmaceutical research. Known for its potent antioxidant properties, Trolox effectively scavenges free radicals and protects cells from oxidative stress. It is commonly utilized in studies investigating oxidative damage, aging, and neurodegenerative diseases. Additionally, Trolox serves as a standard in assays measuring antioxidant activity, particularly in the evaluation of compounds that may mitigate oxidative damage. Its broad application makes Trolox a valuable tool in biomedical research.
