The inactivation of coliphage MS2 by iron- and copper-catalyzed Fenton systems was studied to assess the importance of this process for virus inactivation in natural systems and during water treatment by advanced oxidation processes. The influence of H2O2 ...
Tyrosine nitration, often observed during neurodegenerative disorders under nitrative stress, is usually considered to be induced chemically either by nitric oxide and oxygen forming nitrogen dioxide or by the decomposition of peroxynitrite. It can also be ...
Synthetic boron-doped diamond (BDD) thin film is an electrode material with high chemical and dimensional stability, low background current and a very wide potential window of water stability. Upon anodic polarization, BDD generates hydroxyl radicals that ...
A reactive transport model was developed to simultaneously predict Cryptosporidium parvuum oocyst inactivation and bromate formation during ozonation of natural water. A mechanistic model previously established to predict bromate formation in organic-free ...
This thesis is devoted to the study of oxygen reduction reaction catalysed by porphyrins at the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES). Electrochemical and spectrophotometric techniques are introduced to these interfaces in order to ...
Several researches have dealt with the thermal initiation of Me methacrylate (MMA) in the past. Some of them already discussed the presence of peroxide contg. species that are formed from dissolved oxygen and the monomer itself as main reason for this init ...
UMR 7139 CNRS, Universite Pierre et Marie Curie and Laboratoires Goemar, Station Biologique, Place Georges Teissier, F-29680 Roscoff, France. weinberg@sb-roscoff.fr Gametophytes of the marine alga Chondrus crispus are more resistant than tetrasporophytes t ...
Molecular oxygen (O2) reduction by decamethylferrocene (DMFc) was investigated at a polarized water/ 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) interface. Electrochemical results point to a mechanism similar to the EC type reaction at the conventional electrode/solution int ...
The reduction of palladium oxide nanoparticles in the presence of hydrogen peroxide or dissolved oxygen gives rise to a catalytic reduction current dependent on the hydrogen peroxide concentration or the oxygen concentration. Using terephthalic acid as an ...
An emerging concept in cell signaling is the natural role of reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as beneficial messengers in redox signaling pathways. The nature of H2O2 signaling is confounded, however, by difficulties in tracking it ...
