The amanitins (namely ?- and ?-amanitin) contained in certain mushrooms are bicyclic octapeptides that, when ingested, responsible for potentially lethal hepatotoxicity. M101 is an extracellular hemoglobin extracted from the marine worm Arenicola marina . It has intrinsic Cu/Zn-SOD-like activity currently used as oxygen carrier organ preservation solutions. Our present results suggest that migh...

The paper presents the results of experiments on reduction copper oxides formed during heat treatment metallic samples in air. necessary condition is presence a muffle made material with higher electron affinity (lower standard electrode potential) compared to copper. Replacing nitrogen composition atmosphere an equal proportion argon does not change observed redox pattern. Our indicate electro...
