Electrochemical method of antioxidants level determination in biological media was developed. The comparison of the blood serum redox potential and antioxidant activity for practically health people (n=31) was carried out. The effect of added antioxidants and oxidants to level of human albumin solution redox potential was investigated. Correlation between blood serum redox potential value with antioxidants level for practically health people was found. Simultaneous monitoring of redox potential with antioxidants level in patients after kidney transplantation was done.
