Handbook Methods For Oxygen Radical Research

Download or read book Handbook Methods For Oxygen Radical Research written by Robert A. Greenwald and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is divided into five sections. Section I deals with preparative methodology for isolation and purification of the components of the oxy radical experimental systems use most frequently, including all three forms of SOD and several other important scavengers. Section II provides the experimenter with a choice of a dozen oxy radical generating systems which can be used for testing of scavengers or for evaluation of the effects of oxy radicals on target tissues. The reader will note that in this section, as well as in most of the rest of the volume, the orientation is primarily biochemical, biologic, and medical, rather than pure chemistry or pure physics. Nevertheless, the techniques are widely applicable to a variety of disciplines.
