The Syringe Nitroxide Free Radical – Part II

Abstract: Some plastic syringes introduce a nitroxide free radical into the fluids they contain. The EPR spectrum shows a triplet with a N = 17.0 ± 0.1 G in plasma. We report here that this nitroxide/ hydroxylamine couple serves as an antioxidant system, whose redox potential appears to be between that of vitamin C and vitamin E. This adventitious antioxidant can alter the course of free radical processes.

“…On the other hand, the low intensity of the additional adducts seems reasonable since it is well known that DMPO-OOH adducts have short half lifetimes in water and easily undergo disproportionation [15]. Additionally, the kinetics of the reactions between •OOH and DMPO are typically much slower than that reported for the formation of the DMPO-OH spin adduct [16,17].…”

“…iron accelerates the reaction between catechols and superoxide (62) and complicates the detection of superoxide by DMPO (64). The reaction between superoxide and 3-chlorocatechol is expected to produce a mixture of multimeric species and o-quinones (62,65), which would be difficult to detect given their low concentrations.…”

“…Finally, it is noted that the inactivation of DHBD with 3-chlorocatechol was rapid (Ͻ10 s) and would thus produce a burst of superoxide. Such bursts are harder to detect because the efficiency of trapping agents decreases as the rate of superoxide production increases (50,64). Nevertheless, the results strongly imply that inactivation of DHBD during catalytic turnover involves the dissociation of superoxide from the EAO 2 ternary complex.…”

“…The photoinduced generation of ROS species, such as, hydroxyl radical (OH), superoxide (O 2 · ), and singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) from photoexcited Cu 2 (OH)PO 4 NSs/QDs was examined using radicals, 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) was used as a spin-trapping agent. [22] Under dark conditions, Cu 2 (OH)PO 4 NSs (1 mg mL −1 ) in the presence of DMPO did not show any noticeable EPR signal (see green traces in Figure 3A).…”
