Use of Dithiothreitol Assay to Evaluate the Oxidative Potential of Atmospheric Aerosols
Oxidative potential (OP) has been proposed as a useful descriptor for the ability of particulate matter (PM) to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and consequently induce oxidative stress in biological systems, which has been recognized as one of the

Oxidant production from source-oriented particulate matter – Part 1: Oxidative potential using the dithiothreitol (DTT) assay [PDF]
Recent epidemiological evidence supports the hypothesis that health effects from inhalation of ambient particulate matter (PM) are governed by more than just the mass of PM inhaled.

Development and field testing of an online instrument for measuring the real-time oxidative potential of ambient particulate matter based on dithiothreitol assay [PDF]
We developed an online instrument for measuring the oxidative potential (OP) of ambient particulate matter (PM) using the dithiothreitol (DTT) assay. The instrument uses a mist chamber (MC) to continuously collect the ambient PM2.5 in water, and then ...

Evaluation of Oxidative Potential of Pyrenequinone Isomers by the Dithiothreitol (DTT) Assay
Atmospheric quinoid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHQs) have adverse health effects as redox-active species in particulate matter (PM). Several PAHQs are known to be very reactive in the dithiothreitol (DTT) assay; however, it is unclear if ...
