Difference between Antioxidant and Detoxification

Antioxidant vs. Detoxification

Antioxidants are molecules that inhibit the oxidation of other molecules. Detoxification or detoxication (detox for short) is the physiological or medicinal removal of toxic substances from a living organism, including the human body, which is mainly carried out by the liver.

Similarities between Antioxidant and Detoxification

Antioxidant and Detoxification have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Glutathione S-transferase, Metabolism, Organism, Redox.

Glutathione S-transferase

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), previously known as ligandins, comprise a family of eukaryotic and prokaryotic phase II metabolic isozymes best known for their ability to catalyze the conjugation of the reduced form of glutathione (GSH) to xenobiotic substrates for the purpose of detoxification.
