Emerging classes of antioxidant to cancer therapy: a review of clinical and experimental studies [PDF]
This review mainly focuses on the relation between antioxidants with cancer therapy. Antioxidants have been reported to play an essential role to reduce free radical species. Free radicals commonly cause oxidative damage which is a common factor in the aging process, and also the vital factor of formation, and development of major disease specially ...

Influence of Humidity, Temperature and Radicals on the Formation and Thermal Properties of Secondary Organic Aerosol (SOA) from Ozonolysis of β-pinene [PDF]
The influence of water and radicals on SOAs produced by {\beta}-pinene ozonolysis was investigated at 298 and 288 K using a laminar flow reactor. A volatility tandem differential mobility analyzer (VTDMA) was used to measure the evaporation of the SOA, enabling the parameterization of its volatility properties.

Free Radical Scavenging Potency of Dihydroxybenzoic Acids [PDF]
In order to evaluate the free radical scavenging potency of dihydroxybenzoic acids (DHBAs) the Density Functional Theory (DFT) was used. The M05-2X/6-311++G(d,p) and B3LYP-D2/6-311++G(d,p) theoretical models were applied. Three possible antioxidant mechanisms were examined: hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), single-electron transfer followed by proton ...

Efficient, rapid one-electron photooxidation of chemisorbed polyhydroxyl alcohols and carbohydrates by TiO2 nanoparticles in an aqueous solution [PDF]
Time-resolved transient absorption spectroscopy has been used to study nanosecond and sub-microsecond electron dynamics in aqueous anatase nanoparticles in the presence of hole scavengers: chemisorbed polyols and carbohydrates. These polyhydroxylated compounds are rapidly oxidized by the holes; 50-60% of these holes are scavenged within the duration of

On the quantification of the dissolved hydroxyl radicals in the plasma-liquid system using the molecular probe method [PDF]
Hydroxyl (OH) radical is the most important reactive species produced by the plasma-liquid interactions, and the OH in the liquid phase (dissolved OH radical, OHdis) takes effect in many plasma-based applications due to its high reactivity. Therefore, the quantification of the OHdis in the plasma-liquid system is of great importance, and a molecular ...

Free radical scavenging activity v1 [PDF]
Free radical scavenging assay was measured using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical test. To each aqueous extract 3 mL of 0.1 mM solution of DPPH in methanol was added (Fermont, Monterrey). Tubes were shaken vigorously and allowed to stand for 30 min at room temperature in the dark. Absorbance was measured at 517 nm.

Basis-independent system-environment coherence is necessary to detect magnetic field direction in an avian-inspired quantum magnetic sensor [PDF]
Advancing our understanding of non-trivial quantum effects in biomolecular complexes operating in physiological conditions requires the precise characterisation of the non-classicalities that may be present in such systems as well as asserting whether such features are required for robust function.
