Antioxidant Potential of Glutathione: A Theoretical Study [PDF]

open access: possibleThe Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2011
All possible X-H (where X can be C, N, O or S) bond dissociation energies (BDEs) of glutathione (γ-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinyl-glycine, GSH) and its fragments have been calculated by first principle methods, and the antioxidant potential of GSH was revealed to be higher than expected in earlier studies. Electron delocalization was found to have an important

Antioxidant potential of ferulic acid

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 1992
Ferulic acid is a ubiquitous plant constituent that arises from the metabolism of phenylalanine and tyrosine. It occurs primarily in seeds and leaves both in its free form and covalently linked to lignin and other biopolymers. Due to its phenolic nucleus and an extended side chain conjugation, it readily forms a resonance stabilized phenoxy radical ...
