Abstract:

Objective To investigate serum level of superoxide dismutase(SOD) in healthy adults in Meizhou,and to establish the reference interval for serum SOD. Methods A total of 1 598 healthy adults,including 792 males(49.59%) and 806 females(50.41%),were enrolled. Serum SOD was determined,and the reference interval was determined by percentile method(P2.5-P97.5). Results Serum SOD levels varied between ages and sex(P<0.05). The reference intervals were determined according to ages and sex,respectively,144-313 U/mL for 18-54-year-old males,144-290 U/mL for 18-54-year-old females,120-261 U/mL for ≥ 55-year-old males and 131-231 U/mL for ≥ 55-year-old females. Conclusions The reference intervals of serum SOD have been preliminarily established in Meizhou healthy adults.
