Induction of extracellular hydroxyl radical production by white-rot fungi through quinone redox cycling.
A simple strategy for the induction of extracellular hydroxyl radical (OH) production by white-rot fungi is presented. It involves the incubation of mycelium with quinones and Fe(3+)-EDTA. Succinctly, it is based on the establishment of a quinone redox cycle catalyzed by cell-bound dehydrogenase activities and the ligninolytic enzymes (laccase and peroxidases). The semiquinone intermediate prod...
متن کاملSensitive electrochemical detection of the hydroxyl radical using enzyme-catalyzed redox cycling.
Enzyme-catalyzed signal amplification was introduced to the electrochemical detection of the OH radical. In the presence of phenol as a trapping agent, glucose as a substrate, and pyrroloquinoline quinone-containing glucose dehydrogenase (PQQ-GDH) as a catalyst, the current signal for the trapping adducts (catechol and hydroquinone) produced by the hydroxylation of phenol could be amplified an...
متن کاملEnhancing the production of hydroxyl radicals by Pleurotus eryngii via quinone redox cycling for pollutant removal.
The induction of hydroxyl radical (OH) production via quinone redox cycling in white-rot fungi was investigated to improve pollutant degradation. In particular, we examined the influence of 4-methoxybenzaldehyde (anisaldehyde), Mn(2+), and oxalate on Pleurotus eryngii OH generation. Our standard quinone redox cycling conditions combined mycelium from laccase-producing cultures with 2,6-dimethox...
متن کاملLight Spectrum of Compact Fluorescent Lamps in Iranian Market and Possibility of Hydroxyl Radical Production
Background and purpose: Despite growing use of energy-saving lamps or compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), there are concerns about ultraviolet radiation in their output. In this study, the output of CFLs available in Iranian market in the range of infrared, visible, and ultraviolet were measured and the possibility of hydroxyl radical production by their radiation was evaluated. Materials and me...
متن کاملEstrogen diminishes postischemic hydroxyl radical production.
Reperfusion of blood flow to an ischemic myocardium is imperative to survival; ironically, it may also manifest several pathophysiological conditions. The most important of these are reperfusion arrhythmias and tissue injury and/or death. The mechanisms involved in reperfusion arrhythmias remain to be fully elucidated; however, increasing evidence indicates that reperfusion-induced arrhythmias ...
