Wikipedia
oxidised
Redox (reduction–oxidation, RED-oks, REE-doks) is a type of chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of substrate change. Oxidation is the loss of electrons or an increase in the oxidation state, while reduction is the gain of electrons or a decrease in the oxidation state. There are two classes of redox reactions: Electron-transfer – Only one (usually) electron flows from the reducing agent to the oxidant. This type of redox reaction is often discussed in terms of redox couples and electrode potentials. Atom transfer – An atom transfers from one substrate to another. For example, in the rusting of iron, the oxidation state of iron atoms increases as the iron converts to an oxide, and simultaneously the oxidation state of oxygen decreases as it accepts electrons released by the iron. Although oxidation reactions are commonly associated with the formation of oxides, other chemical species can serve the same function. In hydrogenation, C=C (and other) bonds are reduced by transfer of hydrogen atoms.

oxidised
In chemistry, oxidised refers to a process where a substance loses electrons in a chemical reaction, typically in combination with oxygen. This can result in an increase in the oxidation state of the substance. Oxidation is integral to many chemical reactions such as combustion, respiration, and corrosion. It is one half of the process known as redox (reduction-oxidation) reactions, wherein one substance is oxidised and another is reduced.
