The presence of such significant quantities of H2O2 in the blood have been demonstrated for the first time. The investigation, therefore, opens a newer avenue of research on diseases purported to be related to the generation of oxygen radicals in vivo.Key Words: Blood, plasma, peroxide,...
Blood and plasma of humans and rats were analyzed for hydrogen peroxide. The samples were analyzed after deproteinization with trichloroacetic acid, immediately after they were withdrawn from human volunteers or rats. A radio-isotopic technique based on peroxide-dependent decarboxylation of 1-14C-alpha...

In this study we have examined peripheral blood monocytes from a range of leprosy patients in an attempt to identify a possible defect in macrophage function. The ability of these cells to produce hydrogen peroxide and superoxide, two bactericidal metabolites of the monocyte/macrophage, has been ...
This simple procedure is based on the fact that vitamin E, a fat soluble vitamin, is dependent upon bile salts in the intestine for absorption. Red blood cells hemolyze in the presence of hydrogen peroxide when cellular vitamin E is depleted. Hence, in severe biliary obstruction, the PH ...
Hemostatic agents have been popularized as effective means of retarding the development of potentially harmful debris interposition adjacent to, and blood lamination patterns within, the methylmethacrylate. The hemostatic effectiveness of hydrogen peroxide was tested on six metaphyseal bone beds in ten ...
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) has a major function in host-microbial interactions. Although most studies have focused on the endogenous H2O2 produced by immune cells to kill microbes, bacteria can also produce H2O2. How microbial H2O2 influences the dynamics of host-microbial interactions is unclear. Here...
We all know that hydrogen peroxide kills germs when applied to cuts, but why does it produce that white foam?
DNA single-strand breaks induced by cell treatment with hydrogen peroxide are repaired and simultaneously trigger programmed cell death in resting human blood lymphocytes. Apoptosis is accompanied by special morphological changes in lymphocytes (15% of total cell number), internucleosomal DNA degradation,...
