A simple chemiluminescence method for measuring oxygen-derived free radicals generated in oxygenated rat myocardium.

We have developed a simple and reproducible method employing chemiluminescence to measure oxygen-derived free radicals generated in oxygenated myocardium. Isolated perfused rat hearts were frozen in liquid nitrogen during the control perfusion (non-ischemia), after 30 min of global ischemia (ischemia), or after 20 min of reperfusion following 30-min global ischemia (reperfusion). The frozen hea...

Neutrophil Leukocyte: Combustive Microbicidal Action and Chemiluminescence

Neutrophil leukocytes protect against a varied and complex array of microbes by providing microbicidal action that is simple, potent, and focused. Neutrophils provide such action via redox reactions that change the frontier orbitals of oxygen (O2) facilitating combustion. The spin conservation rules define the symmetry barrier that prevents direct reaction of diradical O2 with nonradical molecu...

Evaluation of Food Antioxidant Activity by Photostorage Chemiluminescence

A sensitive and simple method for measuring antioxidant activity was developed, based on photostoragechemiluminescence generated from photolyzed acridine and strong bases. This method was used to evaluate the antioxidant activity of food additives by measuring the inhibition of chemiluminescence at a gradient of antioxidant concentrations. Adipic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, malic and fumaric a...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa exoproteases inhibit human neutrophil chemiluminescence.

The present study was designed to examine the effect of Pseudomonas aeruginosa alkaline protease and elastase on human polymorphonuclear leukocyte chemiluminescence. Both a luminol-enhanced and a nonenhanced chemiluminescence system using opsonized zymosan were utilized. It was found that alkaline protease and elastase at concentrations of 25 micrograms/ml strongly inhibited luminol-enhanced my...

Influence of Pasteurella haemolytica A1 crude leukotoxin on bovine neutrophil chemiluminescence.

Pasteurella haemolytica A1 crude leukotoxin (25%, vol/vol) rapidly diminished the bovine neutrophil chemiluminescence response to opsonized zymosan. This inhibition was neither prevented nor reversed by 75 mM sucrose. Dilute leukotoxin did not directly stimulate neutrophil chemiluminescence nor did it alter the chemiluminescence response of the neutrophils to opsonized zymosan.
