(v. t.) To cover with sod; to turf.
Example Sentences:
(1) This observation not only provides definitive evidence for the photogeneration of O2-, but also indicates that only a fraction of this species is transformed into H2O2 in the absence of SOD.
(2) cDNA isolations, RNA, and genomic DNA blots confirm the existence and expression of two genes that produce indistinguishable SOD-4 proteins.
(3) The present study explored the possibility that SOD-mimics such as desferrioxamine-Mn(III) chelate [DF-Mn] or cyclic nitroxide stable free radicals could protect from O2-.-independent damage.
(4) Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and its concentration were measured in thyroid tissues obtained from patients with Graves' disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, differentiated thyroid cancer, and endemic goiter (before and after iodine supplementation) as well as in normal thyroid tissue (paranodular tissue) from patients with follicular adenomas.
(5) It is emphasized that the knowledge of the behavior and regulation of SO is incomplete and that this should be remembered when criteria for SOD are applied.

(7) This work undertakes the study of changes in urinary, plasmatic and tissue levels of Thromboxane B2 (TXB2) as well as in tissue Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) after pancreas transplantation and the effect of superoxide dismutase (SOD) on these changes.
(8) After 6 weeks irradiation, the insoluble collagen and elastin were both substantially elevated, as were the activities of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and superoxide dismutase (SOD).
(9) For accurate measurement of both enzymes in samples where MnSOD contributes only a small fraction of the total SOD activity, the DDC method has the advantage that it provides a direct measure of the MnSOD activity without interference by Cu,ZnSOD.
