The amount of dehydroascorbic acid contained within total ascorbic acid (oxidized as well as non-oxidized forms) in plasma, hereafter referred to as the dehydroascorbic acid fraction, may be a measure of oxidative stress during haemodialysis. In the present study, we determined this fraction in chronic haemodialysis patients.
