It is known that hydrogen peroxide interferes with chemical oxygen demand analysis by consuming oxidation agents such as potassium dichromate, thus leading to overestimation of the chemical oxygen demand measurements. The objective of the study was to investigate the effects of hydrogen peroxide interference and to determine true chemical oxygen demand values on interpreting treatment performan...

PURPOSE This in vitro experiment studied the effects of sodium bicarbonate and hydrogen peroxide on the cariogenic bacteria Streptococcus mutans through analysis with a spectrophotometer. METHODS The growth of S. mutans was analyzed using seven different environments. Twelve wells in each of the seven rows of a multi-well plate were used to incubate the test materials. In combinations of 10 m...

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. ...

introduction: the prevalence of chronic diseases increases with age. increased production of reactive oxygen species involves in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary atherosclerosis, hypertension, diabetic vascular complications, and heart failure. the present study aimed to explore the effects of resistance training on plasma hydrogen peroxide (h2o2) level of ageing wom...

leaching of molybdenite concentrate with hydrogen peroxide in sulfuric acid solution was investigated to determine the effects of reaction time, reaction temperature, h2o2 concentration, h2so4 concentration, pulp density and rotation speed on molybdenum extraction and molybdenite dissolution kinetics, using the taguchi method. from analysis of variance (anova) for molybdenum extraction, the mos...

This clinical trial compared the effects of hydrogen peroxide concentration and toothbrushing on clinical response to vital bleaching. Tooth bleaching was accomplished with a flexible, polyethylene strip coated with a hydrogen peroxide bleaching gel worn for 30 minutes twice daily over a 14-day period. A total of 36 subjects were randomized to 1 of 3 treatment groups: 5.3% hydrogen peroxide str...

Ultraviolet photolysis and ultraviolet and hydrogen peroxide oxidation of fourteen commonly used pharmaceutical compounds and two personal care products in mixed solution using low pressure ultraviolet lamp was investigated in laboratory batch experiments. Removal of the compounds followed the first-order reaction kinetic. Three distinct impacts of hydrogen peroxide on ultraviolet and hydrogen ...

Circadian rhythms in animals are regulated at the level of individual cells and by systemic signaling to coordinate the activities of multiple tissues. The circadian pacemakers have several physiological outputs, including daily locomotor rhythms. Several redox-active compounds have been found to function in regulation of circadian rhythms in cells, however, how particular compounds might be in...

Sterols are the important active ingredients of fungal secondary metabolites to induce death of tumor cells. In our previous study, we found that ergosterol peroxide (5α, 8α-epidioxiergosta-6, 22-dien-3β-ol), purified from Ganoderma lucidum, induced human cancer cell death. Since the amount of purified ergosterol peroxide is not sufficient to perform in vivo experiments or apply clinically, we ...

Experiments with volunteers in Singapore have demonstrated that coffee drinking increases urinary hydrogen peroxide levels (Long, Halliwell, Free Rad. Res., 32, 463-467 (2000)). We re-examined the effect of coffee drinking of healthy Japanese subjects on urinary hydrogen peroxide levels. A cup of brewed or canned coffee commercially available in Japan generated 120-420 micro mol hydrogen peroxi...
