Copper facilitates deleterious activity in superoxide radicals.

Studies have shown a significant increase in superoxide radical (SOR) formation and lipid peroxidation in aging rats.

Oltipraz also generates superoxide radical, which can be toxic.

This test depends upon the direct reduction of NBT by superoxide free radical to form an insoluble formazan.

The solvated electron reacts with oxygen to form a superoxide radical (O), which is a potent oxidant.

Studies have suggested that the neurotoxic molecules are not hydroxyl free radicals, but superoxide free radicals.

-due to the inhibition on the generation of the superoxide radical, Gerovital-H3 is a powerful antioxidant, a free radical quencher.

The body uses superoxide dismutase to reduce superoxide radicals to hydrogen peroxide.

Both these agents likely destroy neurons by generating reactive oxygen species such as superoxide radical.

Manganese enzymes are particularly essential in detoxification of superoxide free radicals in organisms that must deal with elemental oxygen.
