| Direct Antioxidant Activity of Purified Glucoerucin (356 words) |
| GER (and its metabolite erucin, ERN) effectively decomposes hydrogen peroxide and alkyl hydroperoxides with second-order rate constants of k(2) = 6.9 +/- 0.1 x 10(-)(2) M(-)(1) s(-)(1) and 4.5 +/- 0.2 x 10(-)(3) M(-)(1) s(-), respectively, in water at 37 degrees C, thereby acting as a peroxide-scavenging preventive antioxidant. |
| On the other hand, ERN (and conceivably GER), like other ITCs, does not possess any chain-breaking antioxidant activity, being unable to protect styrene from its thermally (37 degrees C) initiated autoxidation in the presence of AMVN. |
| The mechanism and relevance of the antioxidant activity of GER and ERN are discussed. |
