Glycerophosphate (GP)-dependent, ferricyanide-induced hydrogen peroxide production was studied in brown adipose tissue mitochondria from newborn rats. Relations between the rate of hydrogen peroxide production and total amount of hydrogen peroxide produced at different GP and ferricyanide concentrations were determined. It was found that the rate of hydrogen peroxide production increases with i...

The catalase-ethyl hydrogen peroxide compound studied by Stern (1) formed slowly, even in the presence of a very large concentration of ethyl hydrogen peroxide. In the previous paper (2), Stern’s compound has been shown to be preceded by a green primary compound. These kinetic studies show that the primary compound forms rapidly, has a high affinity* for its substrate, and quantitatively fulfil...

abstract statement of problem: bleaching systems with different concentrations and applications are widely used to improve the visual appearance of the teeth, but one of the complications of these materials is reduction of bond strength for immediately bonding to the bleached enamel. objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of using different modified hydrogen peroxide bl...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The role of hydrogen peroxide in the regulation of cerebral arterial tone is not completely understood. Previous studies have demonstrated that hydrogen peroxide causes vasodilation of small cerebral arteries. The present study was designed to determine the mechanisms responsible for relaxations of large cerebral arteries to hydrogen peroxide. METHODS Rings of canine mi...

a range of some iranian monofloral honeys were assayed for antibacterial activity with and without hydrogen peroxide which is inactivated by the addition of catalase. i t was found that the high amount of antibacterial activity in honeys was due to a factor other than hydrogen peroxide. the test microorganism staphylococcus aureus, was not inhibited by the acidity or the osmolarity of the honey...

1. The velocity of decomposition of hydrogen peroxide by catalase as a function of (a) concentration of catalase, (b) concentration of hydrogen peroxide, (c) hydrogen ion concentration, (d) temperature has been studied in an attempt to correlate these variables as far as possible. It is concluded that the reaction involves primarily adsorption of hydrogen peroxide at the catalase surface. 2. Th...

Under anaerobic conditions an exponentially growing culture of Escherichia coli K-12 was exposed to hydrogen peroxide in the presence of various compounds. Hydrogen peroxide (0.1 mM) together with 0.1 mM L-cysteine or L-cystine killed the organisms more rapidly than 10 mM hydrogen peroxide alone. The exposure of E. coli to hydrogen peroxide in the presence of L-cysteine inhibited some of the ca...

*Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract In this work, a new method was developed for the catalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide at glassy carbon electrode modified with silver nanoparticles and multi-wall carbon nanotubes. Silver incorporated in this modified electrode acted as catalyst to reduce hydrogen peroxide. First, the electrochemical behavior of silver, incorporated in m...

The overproduction of hydrogen peroxide is implicated in the progress of numerous life-threatening diseases and there is a great need for the development of contrast agents that can detect hydrogen peroxide in vivo. In this communication, we present a new contrast agent for hydrogen peroxide, termed peroxalate micelles, which detect hydrogen peroxide through chemiluminescence, and have the phys...
