Hydrogen peroxide inhibition of maximum Ca2+-ATPase and Na+,K+-ATPase activity was measured in a membrane-enriched preparation of rabbit lens cortical fibers and epithelium. At 5 X 10(-6) M hydrogen peroxide maximum Ca2+-ATPase activity was inhibited by 39%, while maximum Na+,K+-ATPase activity was stimulated. Ca2+-ATPase activity was almost completely inhibited at 5 X 10(-4) M hydrogen peroxid...

introduction: the prevalence of chronic diseases increases with age. increased production of reactive oxygen species (ros) involves in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary atherosclerosis, hypertension, diabetic vascular complications, and heart failure. the present study aimed to explore the effects of resistance training on plasma hydrogen peroxide level of ageing wome...

wastewater from molasses processing contains a large amount of coloured substances that give a recalcitrant dark brown colour and high organic load to the effluent. photocatalytic decolourization of molasses wastewater was performed using titanium dioxide catalyst coated on the surface of south african natural zeolite using the solid-solid dispersion method. addition of hydrogen peroxide as an ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The role of hydrogen peroxide in the regulation of cerebral arterial tone is not completely understood. Previous studies have demonstrated that hydrogen peroxide causes vasodilation of small cerebral arteries. The present study was designed to determine the mechanisms responsible for relaxations of large cerebral arteries to hydrogen peroxide. METHODS Rings of canine mi...

1. The velocity of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by catalase as a function of (a) concentration of catalase, (b) concentration of hydrogen peroxide, (c) hydrogen ion concentration, (d) temperature has been studied in an attempt to correlate these variables as far as possible. It is concluded that the reaction involves primarily adsorption of hydrogen peroxide at the catalase surface. 2. Th...

Under anaerobic conditions an exponentially growing culture of Escherichia coli K-12 was exposed to hydrogen peroxide in the presence of various compounds. Hydrogen peroxide (0.1 mM) together with 0.1 mM L-cysteine or L-cystine killed the organisms more rapidly than 10 mM hydrogen peroxide alone. The exposure of E. coli to hydrogen peroxide in the presence of L-cysteine inhibited some of the ca...

*Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract In this work, a new method was developed for the catalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide at glassy carbon electrode modified with silver nanoparticles and multi-wall carbon nanotubes. Silver incorporated in this modified electrode acted as catalyst to reduce hydrogen peroxide. First, the electrochemical behavior of silver, incorporated in m...

The overproduction of hydrogen peroxide is implicated in the progress of numerous life-threatening diseases and there is a great need for the development of contrast agents that can detect hydrogen peroxide in vivo. In this communication, we present a new contrast agent for hydrogen peroxide, termed peroxalate micelles, which detect hydrogen peroxide through chemiluminescence, and have the phys...

Diammonium carbonate hydrogen peroxide monosolvate, 2NH(4)(+)·CO(3)(2-)·H(2)O(2), (I), and dicaesium carbonate hydrogen peroxide trisolvate, 2Cs(+)·CO(3)(2-)·3H(2)O(2), (II), were crystallized from 98% hydrogen peroxide. In (I), the carbonate anions and peroxide solvent molecules are arranged on twofold axes. The peroxide molecules act as donors in only two hydrogen bonds with carbonate groups,...

Peptostreptococcus anaerobius VPI 4330-1 was tested under various conditions for examination of the bactericidal effect of hydrogen peroxide. The cells were most rapidly killed by hydrogen peroxide when they were in the exponential-growth phase. Cooling or starving the cells decreased the bactericidal effect of hydrogen peroxide. The ionophore nigericin and the metal ion chelating agent 2,2'-bi...
