Five alfalfa (Medicago sativa L) cultivars from different areas of Iran were evaluated for oxidative markers under salinity conditions. Plants were grown in hydroponic condition by Hoagland nutrient solution containing different amounts of NaCl (control, 50 and 100 mM). Relative growth rate, membrane stability, lipid peroxidation, proline, hydrogen peroxide and relative water contents were dete...

This in vivo study determined the kinetics of 3% hydrogen peroxide in a bleaching gel within the first hour. The material used in this study was 3% hydrogen peroxide gel (Perfecta 3/15, Premier Dental Products Co) and the study involved 10 subjects who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Each subject wore the tray with gel six different times on separate days. Evaluation of the remaining ...

Hydrogen peroxide induces oxidation and consequently inactivation of many protein tyrosine phosphatases. It was found that hydrogen peroxide, in the presence of carboxylic acids, was efficiently activated to form even more potent oxidant - peroxy acid. We have found that peroxytetradecanoic acid decreases the enzymatic activity of CD45 phosphatase significantly more than hydrogen peroxide. Our ...

the effect of fiber surface modification on physical and mechanical properties of kraft pulp wasstudied with and without chitosan. first, the amount of carboxyl groups of kraft pulp at differentaddition levels (0, 2, 3, 4 and 6%) of hydrogen peroxide was determined by means of methylene bluetest. then, the samples containing the highest carboxyl groups were treated at ph=8.5 with chitosan at0.7...

The use of hydrogen peroxide as a precursor to improvised explosives has made its detection a topic of critical importance. Chemiresistor arrays comprised of 50 nm thick films of metallophthalocyanines (MPcs) are redox selective vapor sensors of hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is shown to decrease currents in cobalt phthalocyanine sensors while it increases currents in nickel, copper, and ...

Prions pose a challenge to decontamination, particularly before the re-use of surgical instruments. They have relatively high resistance to standard decontamination methods and require extreme chemical and/or heat-based treatments for devices used in known or suspected cases of disease. This study investigated the effectiveness of a new gaseous hydrogen peroxide sterilisation process for prions...

this study investigated the fatty acids profile, oxidative stability indices, and bioactive compounds of virgin and processed olive oils (leccino and frantoio cultivars). results showed that fatty acid profile of the studied oils contained mostly oleic acid followed by palmitic and linoleic acid. acid values of virgin frantoio and processed leccino were 0.78 and 0.18 mg koh/g oil, with peroxide...

When hydrogen peroxide is mixed with caustic soda, an auto-accelerating reaction can lead to gen­ eration of significant amounts of heat and oxygen. On the basis of experiments using typical pulp mill process con­ centration and temperatures, a relatively simple kinetic model has been developed. Evaluation of these model results reveals that hydrogen peroxide-caustic soda systems are extremely ...

The demand for conservative esthetic dentistry has dramatically grown and so has the rapid development of new non-restorative treatments for discolored teeth. Nightguard vital bleaching has become one of the most frequently used treatment modality for improving the esthetic appearance of teeth, primarily because of its relative ease of application, the safety of 10% carbamide peroxide bleaching...
