The formation of hydrogen peroxide during the oxidation of NADH by purified preparations of cytochrome o has been demonstrated by employing three independent methods: polarographic, calorimetric, and fluorometric. The first two methods were used to assay for the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide and showed that hydrogen peroxide did accumulate as a product, but only about 30% of the oxygen cons...

Lactoperoxidase catalyzes the oxidation of thiocyanate by hydrogen peroxide into hypothiocyanite, a reaction which can protect bacterial and mammalian cells from killing by hydrogen peroxide. The present study demonstrates, however, that lactoperoxidase in the presence of thiocyanate can actually potentiate the bactericidal and cytotoxic effects of hydrogen peroxide under specific conditions, s...

Purpose : To 1) evaluate the embryotoxic effects of hydrogen peroxide on mouse embryo development and 2) examine if pentoxifylline can reverse hydrogen peroxide induced embryotoxicity. Methods : Prospective in vitro study examining the effects of varying concentrations of hydrogen peroxide and pentoxifylline on the blastocyst development rate alone as well as in combination. Results : A dose-de...

A technique utilizing 1H NMR spectroscopy has been developed to measure the concentration of hydrogen peroxide from 10(-3) to 10 M. Hydrogen peroxide produces a peak at around 10-11 ppm, depending upon the interaction between solvent molecules and hydrogen peroxide molecules. The intensity of this peak can be monitored once every 30 s, enabling the measurement of changes in hydrogen peroxide co...

The reaction of hydrogen peroxide and  pheny -9-acridinecarboxylate in the presence of rhodamin B as a fluorophore leads to the emission of either bright blue light  or bright red light, depending on the structure of fluorescer and reaction conditions. The light emitter responsible for the Chemi Luminescence (CL) reaction is acridone and that the blue light produced with out the fluorescers...

adsorption of cations al, zn, fe, cr and pb from aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide using ir-120 cation-exchange resin was studied. the removal percentage of the cations was examined by varying experimental conditions (such as ph of the hydrogen peroxide solution, temperature, contact time and dosage of adsorbent) in a stirred-batch system. under the optimal conditions (ph=1, t=25oc, contact...

The formation of hydrogen peroxide during the oxidation of NADH by purified preparations of cytochrome o has been demonstrated by employing three independent methods: polarographic, colorimetric, and fluorometric. The first two methods were used to assay for the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide and showed that hydrogen peroxide did accumulate as a product, but only about 30% of the oxygen cons...
