The charging process is called "deep dielectric charging". The higher the energy of the electrons in the beam, the deeper they penetrate. For example, electrons with an energy of five MeV will penetrate about one-half inch into acrylic, but a 1/16-inch thick piece of much denser lead ...
Furthermore, basal levels of GSH determine how much NAPQI is detoxified or will bind to proteins. Because drugs can protect or increase APAP toxicity by modulating hepatic GSH levels, it is important to determine the basal levels of hepatic GSH before APAP treatment. This is particularly ...
1O2 is highly reactive, so much so that, similar to OH−, it is thought not to diffuse far from its production site [42]. It is usually generated in the antenna system of the chloroplasts after the 3Chl* reacts with oxygen [43]. It represents the first and foremost excited ...
