 The increase of **"​Oxidant Reactive Species"​ (ROS)** produced under conditions of oxidative stress can induce reversible/​irreversible damage in the target molecules through the formation of radical intermediates centered on the target molecules. However, many of these radicals have a short half-life and their monitoring becomes problematic with both direct EPR and spin trapping technique. The increase of **"​Oxidant Reactive Species"​ (ROS)** produced under conditions of oxidative stress can induce reversible/​irreversible damage in the target molecules through the formation of radical intermediates centered on the target molecules.

Managed by a dedicated software that allows to set OSL and TL measurements in sequence. The optical stimulation system consists of infrared and visible LEDs; currently it allows stimulation with blue light (470 ± 30nm, with a maximum power of 36mW/cm² in the sample position). The heating system for thermal stimulation allows reaching the maximum temperature of 700°C. Different optical filters are available to select the frequency range of the emitted luminescence.
