Planteome: Term Details for "antioxidant activity" (GO:0016209)

Accession: GO:0016209
Name: antioxidant activity
Ontology: molecular_function
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: Inhibition of the reactions brought about by dioxygen (O2) or peroxides. Usually the antioxidant is effective because it can itself be more easily oxidized than the substance protected. The term is often applied to components that can trap free radicals, thereby breaking the chain reaction that normally leads to extensive biological damage. Source: ISBN:0198506732
