Superoxide dismutase in leukocytes [PDF]
1 ] or NBT [ 141 in the xanthine-xanthine oxidase reaction. The reduction of NBT and cytochrome c was followed at 560 and 550 nm respectively. One unit of SOD activity is defined as the amount of enzyme that causes a decrease of the optical density from 0.025 to 0.0125 in 1 min using 1 cm light path cuvette.

Superoxide Dismutases and Superoxide Reductases
Superoxide, O2•–, is formed in all living organisms that come in contact with air, and, depending upon its biological context, it may act as a signaling agent, a toxic species, or a harmless intermediate that decomposes spontaneously. Its levels are limited in vivo by two different types of enzymes, superoxide reductase (SOR) and superoxide dismutase ...
