Table 9. Different mechanisms of antioxidant action and the parameters describing the activity [37].

Mechanism Reaction Parameter
HAT (1) ArOH + X → ArO+ XH (1) B.D.E = H(ArO) + H(H)–H(ArOH)
SET-PT (1) ArOH + X → ArOH•+ + X (1) IP = H(ArOH•+) + H(H+)—H(ArOH)
(2) ArOH•+ → ArO + H+ (2) PDE = H(ArO) + H(H+)–H(ArOH•+)
SPLET (1) ArOH → ArO+ H+ (1) PA = H(ArO-) + H(H+)–H(ArOH)
(2) ArO+ X + H+ → ArO + XH (2) ETE = H(ArO) + H(e-)–H(ArO-)
