FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: method involves blood sampling; determining the intensity of chemoluminescence in test and control samples; calculating K1 as ratio of chemoluminescence intensity in test and control samples and simultaneously determining activity of ceruloplasmin; calculating coefficient K2 as ratio of activity of ceruloplasmin in test and control samples; calculating K3 coefficient by formula: K3 = K1/K2. When K3 value is less than 1, the capacity of blood plasma to produce free radicals is considered as reduced; when equal to 1 - as normal; when exceeding 1 - as increased. Method allows results obtained at different institutes to be standardized. EFFECT: increased efficiency and simplified method. 1 tbl
