    measure of a sample's ability to neutralize free radicals

    Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) is a measure of the combined antioxidant effect of all the compounds present in a sample, such as blood, food, or tissue.

TAC is important in both research and clinical settings to assess the antioxidant status and potential health benefits of various substances.
