dynamicmonitoring of patientswascompletedduring the operation. During this monitoring the patients’ preopera-tive,intraoperativeandpostoperativemeanbloodpressure (MBP) was recorded (Fig. 1). The MBP values of patients in groups S, D and P were similar. It was observed that sevoflurane and propofol significantly increases the total antioxidantcapacity.Furthermorewefoundthatdesflurane significantlyincreasesthetotaloxidantcapacity.

Discussion
In this study we reached the conclusion that sevoflurane andpropofolhave antioxidantpropertieswhile desflurane increasedoxidativestress.
The aimof generalanestheticapplicationsis tocreate anesthesiaeffectivelywhilereducingtominimallevelsthe conditionsthatmay harmtheorganism. Anesthetic mate-rial appropriate for this aim should be pure and stable chemically, have quickonset andslowend to effect,and notcreateany unwantedeffects onvitalfunctions during andafteradministration.10Infactanestheticmaterialsand
anesthetic duration used in general anesthesia, together withthestressofsurgicaltrauma,areimportantfactorsthat disruptthe body’simmunologicaland antioxidantdefense systems.11 Laparoscopicsurgeryexposes theparietal
peri-toneumandvisceralperitoneumtoischemictrauma.Studies have shown that if intraabdominal pressure is held at 15mmHgduringlaparoscopy,bloodflowtotheparietal peri-toneumreducesbyasignificantamount,whileat10mmHg there is no change. For this reason pneumoperitoneum maypotentially cause ischemia and increase free oxygen radicals.12 General anesthesia disruptsthe immunological
defense mechanisms and induces an inflammatory reac-tionin alveolarmacrophages.Ingeneralizedinflammatory reactionsincludingproductionofleukocytes,inflammation mediatorsandfreeoxygenradicalsarereleased.Membrane damagecaused byfree radicalsduringgeneral anesthesia presentsasobservedlipidperoxidationproducts.13 Studies

examinedthetotaloxidativestatusandantioxidativestatus levelsofpediatricpatientsundergoinglaparoscopicsurgery andconcludedthatthesurgicalstressoflaparoscopy with inhalationanestheticsincreasedtotaloxidantcapacityand reducedtotalantioxidantcapacity.
Inrecentyearsmanystudiesontheantioxidantsystem havebeencompleted,thesestudiesfoundthatthe antiox-idant system has major effects on patient mortality and morbidity.16Antioxidantsystemsnormallyworkasawhole,
protectingcells fromthetoxiceffects ofoxygenradicals. Thismaintains theoxidant andantioxidantsystemsinthe organisminabalancedfashion.Insituationswherethis bal-anceisdisruptedtowardoxidation,inflammatorymediators andfreeoxygenradicalsareproducedbyleukocytes.These createlipidperoxidationincellmembranes,damagingDNA andcausingdisease.17
while antioxidant capacity was statistically significantly increased.Dikmenetal.18 lookedat theeffectof
sevoflu-raneon the enzymaticantioxidant defense system in the livers of rats and showed that sevoflurane produced an increase in lipid peroxidation before any insufficiency in the enzymatic antioxidant defense system. Allaouchiche et al.19 compared propofol (8mg/kg/h), desflurane (10%)
and sevoflurane (2.5%) to determine oxidative situation in pigs. Pigs were exposed to the anesthetic agents for about120min;propofolincreasedglutationperoxidase lev-els (GSH-Px) significantly in both bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL)fluidandincirculation.Desfluranecausedasignificant decreaseofGSH-PxinbothBALfluidandcirculation,while inthesevofluranegrouptherewerenosignificantchanges identifiedin BALfluidandincirculation. Theystatedthat oxidative stress due to desflurane anesthesia might be relatedtoextreme increasesinproinflammatorycytokines in alveolar macrophages. Sivaci et al.20 used sevoflurane
or desfluraneonpatients undergoinglaparoscopic surgery andobservedthatbothagentshadcytotoxiceffectsdueto freeradicalformation.Desfluranechangesoxidativestress and antioxidant mechanisms negatively; they stated that thenitrogen mixture usedwith desfluranemight increase thiseffectevenmore.Sivacietal.determinedthat desflu-ranereducedserumGSHlevels.Howeverwedidnotidentify anyeffectonserumGSHlevelsduetoeitherdesfluraneor propofol.
Propofol hasbeen found toincreasethe fluidityofthe erythrocytemembranepreventinghemolysis,similarto vita-min E, and shows antioxidant activity. Propofol protects erythrocytes from oxidative and physical stress. Ascorbic acidhasbeenshowntomakethiseffectmorepronounced. Inverselyvolatileanestheticsreduceerythrocytemembrane fluidity inducing hemolysis.21 In our study in the
