| Formation of ROS occurs through several univalent reduction steps, yielding first the superoxide anion, then hydrogen peroxide and the hydroxyl radical, and finally water. |
| By contrast to the initial ROS burst, these subsequent bursts were coincident with increases in oxidase protein components, particularly gp 91 phox. |
| The scavenging activity of the extract on ROS was correlated to its protocatechuic acid content. |
| If ROS damage is the cause of aging, one would expect to find changes in ROS levels when animals eat a calorie-restricted diet. |
| Results demonstrate that this genomic instability is a part of a ROS induced mutator phenotype in the testis that leads to tumorogenesis. |
| In a traumatic brain injury, cells release an excessive amount of an ROS known as superoxide into the blood. |
