چکیده
D-Galactose, Nessler's Reagent The present paper deals with the kinetics of oxidation of D-galactose by Nessler's reagent in alkaline medium. The reaction is zero order with respect to Hg(II) and first order with respect to reducing sugar. The direct proportionality of the reaction rate at low hydroxide ion concentrations shows retarding trend at higher concentrations. The reaction rate is inversely proportional to iodide ion concentration. A mechanism has been proposed taking Hgl3~ as the reacting species.

Introduction: D-galactose (D-gal) is well known as an appropriate agent to induced aging effects in the in vivo and in vitro models. In the present study, we selected crocin, the main constituent of Crocus sativus L. (Saffron), against D-gal cytotoxicity in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. Materials and Methods: Cells were pretreated with crocin (25-500 µM) for 24 h and then expos...
