In this method, very pure hydroxyl and alkyl-oxy radicals were generated by illuminating a phosphate buffer solution containing hydrogen peroxide and 2,2＇-azobis （2-amidinopropane） dihydrochloride with a Hg-Xe arc lamp. The ESR adduct signal was sensitive and very stable. We concluded that instant coffee has high hydroxyl radical and alkyl-oxy radical scavenging activity.展开更多
Two kinds of the phosphorus-centered radicals produced from hydrogen atomion by 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH were trapped by N-tert-butyl-α-phenylnitrone(PBN) and 5, 5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO), and ...Two kinds of the phosphorus-centered radicals produced from hydrogen atomion by 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH were trapped by N-tert-butyl-α-phenylnitrone(PBN) and 5, 5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO), and investigated by means of EPR spectroscopy. The spin adducts with a characteristic hyperfine coupling constant(hfcc) caused by a phosphorus atom were observed. Based on the hfcc values caused by the phosphorus and hydrogen atoms, the con formational positions of the adducts trapped by PBN and DMPO are discussed.展开更多

Electron spin resonance （ESR） is the only method that can be used to directly observe the radicals. In this study, the authors used an ESR spin-trapping method to study the oxidation of triacylglycerols （TAG） containing different fatty acids （FAs） commonly found in food. The ESR adduct signals were analyzed to study the effect of double bonds and the chain length of the FAs of TAG on oxidation. Oxidation was conducted by applying UV irradiation to TAG by dissolving it in N-tert-buthyl〈t-phenylnitrone （PBN）, which trapped the radicals induced in the TAG as an ESR adduct signal. The detection was clearly successful. There were no differences in the spectra of tristearin （18：0） and tripalmitin （16：0）; thus, it can be concluded that the length of the carbon chain of the FAs of TAG does not affect the oxidation reactions. However, the ESR spectra of tristearin （18：0）, triolein （18：1） and trilinolein （18：3） were clearly different due to the presence/absence of a new peak corresponding to new induced radicals, leading to the conclusion that double bonds play a major role in the oxidation reactions of fats and oils.展开更多

Vegetable oil heat-treated were subjected to short UV illumination, and the produced alkyl-oxyl radicals were identified and quantified using the ESR spin trapping technique. ESR signal intensity was used as an indicator of oil oxidation, which monotonically increased as a function of the heat-treatment time. Commercially, available oils were selected and analyzed. The results were compared with those obtained using the PV and AV methods. The present method displayed some analogies with the PV method at least in the early stage of heating. Overall, the present method had highly sensitive and capable of detecting early-stage oxidation in vegetable oil.展开更多

Th e complex of aluminium ion with 5,8 di Br HB is a new water soluble perylene quinonoid derivative with enhanced absorption over HB in the phototherapeutic wi ndow (600-900 nm). Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurement and 9,10 diphenyl anthracene bleaching methods were used to investigate the photosensiti zing activity of [Al 2(5,8 di Br HB)Cl 4] n in the prese nce of oxygen. Singlet oxygen, superoxide anion radical, hydroxyl radical can be generated by [Al 2(5,8 di Br HB)Cl 4] n photosensit ization. The results showed that the production of hydroxyl radical ( · OH) by [Al 2(5,8 di Br HB)Cl 4] n photosensitization comes from the Fenton Haber Weiss reaction and the decom position of DMPO 1O 2 adduct. Formation of H 2O 2 as one of main intermedi ates in the photogeneration of hydroxyl radical was detected by using the cataly zed oxidation of the DPD reagent by the POD enzyme method. Moreover, the experim ents of EPR spin trap and catalase enzyme excluded the effect of organoperoxide on DPD oxidization. These results further support the proposed mechanism of · OH formation.展开更多
