Crucial role of local peroxynitrite formation in neutrophil-induced endothelial cell activation [PDF]
Introduction and methods: The reaction of superoxide anions and NO not only results in a decreased availability of NO, but also leads to the formation of peroxynitrite, the role of which in the cardiovascular system is still discussed controversially. In

Potential Benefits of Peroxynitrite [PDF]
Peroxynitrite (PN) is generated by the reaction of nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide in one of the most rapid reactions in biology. Studies have reported that PN is a cytotoxic molecule that contributes to vascular injury in a number of disease states. However, it has become apparent that PN has beneficial effects including vasodilation, inhibition of ...

Sonochemical formation of peroxynitrite in water: Impact of ultrasonic frequency and power
There is a lack of literature on peroxynitrite formation due to sonolysis of aerated water. In this work, the impact of sonication parameters, frequency and power, on ultrasonic peroxynitrite production in aerated alkaline water was investigated ...

Radical Chemistry in a Femtosecond Laser Plasma: Photochemical Reduction of Ag+ in Liquid Ammonia Solution [PDF]
Plasmas with dense concentrations of reactive species such as hydrated electrons and hydroxyl radicals are generated from focusing intense femtosecond laser pulses into aqueous media. These radical species can reduce metal ions such as Au3+ to form metal

Superoxide and peroxynitrite inatherosclerosis. [PDF]
The role of reactive oxygen species in the vascular pathology associated with atherosclerosis was examined by testing the hypothesis that impaired vascular reactivity results from the reaction of nitric oxide (.NO) with superoxide (O2-), yielding the oxidant peroxynitrite (ONOO-).
