Thirty-seven China wines, produced from different geographical origins, were examined in this study. The antioxidant activity of wines was measured by different analytical methods: oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), reducing power, 2,2-azino-di-(3-ethylbenzothialozine-sulphonic acid) (ABTS), 2,2diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH ), hydroxyl radical-scavenger activity, superoxide radical-sc...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in the pathogenesis of various respiratory diseases. Carbocisteine, a mucoregulatory drug, is used in the treatment of several disease states but little information is available about its scavenger effects on ROS. The present study was designed to examine the scavenger effects of carbocisteine on ROS. METHODS The ox...

Introduction: Humic acids have adverse effects on the water quality, then should be removed from water resources. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nitrate as a radical scavenger for removal of humic acid from aqueous solutions by electron beam irradiation. Materials and Methods: In this study, after preparation of stock humic acid solution in alkaline condition, different con...

Dihydropyrazines (DHPs), which exhibit DNA strand-breaking activity and other biological activities associated with the generation of radical species, reacted with thiourea to give tetraazaindene (TAI) derivatives, despite thiourea is a well known radical scavenger. The structural determination of the TAIs was carried out and formation mechanism of TAI was investigated.

Abstract NC-FG (nanocomposite Fricke gel) dosimeter is a 3D for heavy ion beam without LET dependence. In this study, we evaluate the effects of silver perchlorate, radical scavenger, on NC-FG. We find that radiological properties are changed by small amounts perchlorate. Especially, dose response at high enhanced.

Ribonucleotide Reductase (RNR) is an enzyme responsible for the reduction of ribonucleotides to their corresponding Deoxyribonucleotides (DNA), which is a building block for DNA replication and repair mechanisms. The key role of RNR in DNA synthesis and control in cell growth has made this an important target for anticancer therapy. Increased RNR activity has been associated with malignant tran...

The aim of the study was to evaluate the circulating antioxidant such as vitamin C, vitamin E and GSH in nickel (Ni) induced toxicity in rats and in vitro free radical scavenging assay. In this investigation nickel sulfate (20 mg/kg body weight (b.w.) was administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) for 20 days to induce toxicity. Naringin was administered orally (80 mg/kg body weight) for 20 days wit...

dpph radical-scavenging activity of the bene hull oil (bho), sesame oil (seo), rice bran oil (rbo), the oils' methanolic (ch3oh/h2o, 80:20 v/v) or hexane extracts, and their unsaponifiable matters fraction were measured and compared with each other. as a radical-scavenger, seo was significantly stronger than rbo and bho, respectively. unlike bho and rbo, the unsaponifiable (usm) fraction of the...

background: catalytic ozonation has recently been applied as a new method of contaminant removal from water and wastewater. in this study, copper coated pumice and zeolite were used to catalyze the ozonation of phenol as a target pollutant from aqueous solutions. methods: the pumice and zeolite stone were modified by cuso 4 (1n). modified pumice and zeolite were characterized by adsorption/deso...
