Captopril: a free radical scavenger. [PDF]
The use of captopril in heart failure and hypertension is becoming increasingly accepted. Captopril has a sulphydryl group in its molecular structure. We wondered if this might confer free radical scavenging activity on the drug and have investigated this in an in vitro system. Results show that captopril is a free radical scavenger and we suggest that

Free radical scavenging activity of propolis
We investigated the radical scavenging activity of propolis by ESR spectroscopy using spin trapping method. In addition, we examined the influence of a diet of 2% propolis on mice under oxidative stress. At low concentrations, the methanolic extract of propolis exhibited strong scavenging activity in vitro towards both the superoxide anion radical ...

Low density lipoprotein cytotoxicity induced by free radical peroxidation of lipid.
Low density lipoprotein (LDL) has been reported to be injurious or toxic to cells in vitro. This injurious effect is, in some instances, due to oxidation of the lipid moiety of the lipoprotein.

PHYTOCHEMICAL AND FREE RADICAL SCAVENGING ACTIVITY OF HENNA LEAVES EXTRACTS [PDF]
The ability of Lawsonia inermis (Henna) to prevent the initiation of free radicals that cause cellular damage was investigated in vitro. The plant leaves were extracted using methanol (ME) and diethylether (EE) and the active ingredient, Lawsone (2 ...

Photoinduced Electron-transfer Reaction of Pentafluoroiodobenzene with Alkenes
Irradiation of pentafluoroiodobenzene and alkenes gave the corresponding adducts. The presence of single electron-transfer scavengers, (p-dinitrobenzene and t-Bu2NO) and the free radical inhibitor (hydroquinone) suppressed the reaction.

Oxygen levels do not determine radiation survival of breast cancer stem cells. [PDF]
For more than a century oxygen has been known to be one of the most powerful radiosensitizers. However, despite decades of preclinical and clinical research aimed at overcoming tumor hypoxia, little clinical progress has been made so far.
