Introduction: Nowadays, spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) cultivation has been used by many researchers as an effective tool for infertility treatments. Oxidative conditions can be effective on cell proliferation and differentiation of these cells. So, the aim of this study was to establish oxidative stress model for antioxidant activity of some drugs investigation during SSCs in vitro culture. ...

Background & Aims of the Study: Azo Dyes are the most hazardous materials in different industries. Dyes and pigments used in industries for applications such as textiles, leathers, papers, foodstuffs, additives, etc. Application amounts of azo dyes in industries which can cause severe health problems in human and environmental pollutant problems. So, color wastewaters decomposition plan are...

In this work, an indirect method for estimating the total amount and concentration of oxidative radicals in aqueous and slurry-phase Fenton's systems was developed. This method, based on the use of benzoic acid as probe compound, was applied for evaluating the effect of the operating conditions on the radicals amount produced, their production efficiency (i.e. moles of radicals generated per mo...

It is well established that oxidative stress is an important cause of cellular damage. During stress conditions, plants have evolved regulatory mechanisms to adapt to various environmental stresses. One of the consequences of stress is an increase in the cellular concentration of reactive oxygen species, which is subsequently converted to H2O2. H2O2 is continuously produced as the byproduct of ...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in water has been proposed as a promising solar fuel instead of gaseous hydrogen because of advantages on easy storage and high energy density, being used as a fuel of a one-compartment H2O2 fuel cell for producing electricity on demand with emitting only dioxygen (O2) and water. It is highly desired to utilize the most earth-abundant seawater instead of precious pure w...

The present study revealed the damaging effects of copper and hydrogen peroxide on DNA isolated from human blood in in vitro. Ultra violet spectral studies showed that copper and H2O2 alone (at 20 mM) caused destabilization of DNA structure. Notwithstanding, the effect was more prominent in combination of copper and H2O2. Further, agarose gel electrophoretic studies revealed that neither copper...

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays a key role in many biological processes spanning from coral bleaching, over cell signaling to aging. However, exact quantitative assessments of concentrations and dynamics of H2O2 remain challenging due to methodological limitations— especially at very low (sub μM) concentrations. Most published optical detection schemes for H2O2 suffer from irreversibility, cross...

The cytochrome P450 epoxygenase (CYP)-derived metabolites of arachidonic acid the epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) both function as endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factors (EDHFs) in the human coronary microcirculation. However, the relative importance of and potential interactions between these 2 vasodilators remain unexplored. We identified a novel inhibitory ...
