Free Radical Scavengers (FRS)

Target
FRS
Molecular classification
Other
01

Overview

Free radical scavengers are molecules that neutralize free radicals by donating electrons, thereby preventing oxidative stress and damage to biological molecules like DNA, proteins, and lipids. They are essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis and preventing diseases related to oxidative stress.
