The aqueous electrochemistry of a number of anthraquinone derivatives was studied by using cyclic voltammetry at the surface of carbon paste electrode (CPE). From measurements of the half-wave potential as a function of pH, the potential - pH diagrams were constructed for each compound. The values of formal potentials and the pK'a of some different redox and acid-base couples inv...

issue oxidative stress, which results from a disturbance in the cellular prooxidant-antioxidant balance in favor of prooxidants, is an important contributor to the genesis of gut pathologies such as inflammation and cancer (1). That hydroperoxy and hydroxy fatty acids can provoke colonic DNA synthesis and induction of ornithine decarboxylase (3) is consistent with stimulation of proliferative r...

Iron-sulfur clusters are ubiquitous electron transfer cofactors in hydrogenases. Their types and redox properties are important for H(2) catalysis, but, recently, their role in a protection mechanism against oxidative inactivation has also been recognized for a [4Fe-3S] cluster in O(2)-tolerant group 1 [NiFe] hydrogenases. This cluster, which is uniquely coordinated by six cysteines, is situate...

Due to its short lifespan, ease of use and age-related pathologies that mirror those observed in humans, the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) is poised to become a standard nonhuman primate model of aging. Blood and extracellular fluid possess two major thiol-dependent redox nodes involving cysteine (Cys), cystine (CySS), glutathione (GSH) and glutathione disulfide (GSSG). Alteration in the...

The redox behavior cobalt chloride was studied voltammetrically in presence and absence of L- Carrageenan (LK) natural polymer using glassy carbon electrodes in 0.1 M KCl supporting electrode. Scan rates are studied for the redox behaviors for CoCl2 alone or in presence of L- Carrageenan (LK) natural polymer. Stability constants for the interaction of cobalt ions with L - Carageenan (LK) natura...
