Protonation of a complex is viewed as an oxidative process as well:
Sweating is a hydrolytic and oxidative process.
The reason of this is the inhibition of the oxidative processes of the cells.
In addition, a haloperoxidase is used to attach the chlorine atoms onto rings 2 and 6 via an oxidative process.
In the vinyl naphthalene series, both oxidative and non-oxidative processes are possible; although the latter requires a proton-transfer catalyst.
In fact, one of the proteins involved in the oxidative folding process uses a flavin-dependent reaction to pass electrons directly to molecular oxygen.
The reaction catalyzed by bacterial luciferase is also an oxidative process:
The authors of this paper explained this disappearance by suggesting that the oxidative process involved hydroxyl end groups on the oligomer.
The carbonyl-type compounds develop in low concentrations early in the oxidative process.
Slower oxidative processes like rusting or digestion are not included by this definition.
