Organohalogens, especially organochlorinated compounds (OCs) such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), have long been recognized as a potential threat to human health and, therefore, these compounds have been widely investigated in foods [3, 27], vegetation [9, 14], and the atmosphere [1, 11]. Recently, interest in using extractable organohalogens (EOX) as parameters for the quantification of t...

Rabbit muscle phosphofructokinase is rapidly inactivated at pH 8.0 by incubation with low concentrations of oxidized glutathione, Coenzyme A glutathione mixed disulfide, and oxidized Coenzyme A. The inactivation is first order in disulfide concentration over the concentration ranges examined (50-200 microM), and is approximately 8-fold slower at pH 7.0 than at pH 8.0. The substrates ATP and fru...
