The plasmatic 8-OHdG levels were measured using a competitive quantitative ELISA Kit (8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine ELISA Kit, Abcam (Cambridge, UK)), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The assay is based on the competition between 8-OHdG and an 8-OHdG acetylcholinesterase conjugate for a limited amount of 8-OHdG monoclonal antibody. The colorimetric intensity was determined spectrophotometrically in a SynergyTM multimode microplate reader, and its value was inversely proportional to the amount of free 8-OHdG in plasma.
