What's the difference between peroxide and persalt?

Peroxide


Definition:

  • (n.) An oxide containing more oxygen than some other oxide of the same element. Formerly peroxides were regarded as the highest oxides. Cf. Per-, 2.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The hypothesis that proteins are critical targets in free radical mediated cytolysis was tested using U937 mononuclear phagocytes as targets and iron together with hydrogen peroxide to generate radicals.
  • (2) The data indicate that ebselen is likely to be useful in the therapy of inflammatory conditions in which reactive oxygen species, such as peroxides, play an aetiological role.
  • (3) Furthermore, high-density catalase-positive--but not catalase-negative--E. coli can survive and multiply in the presence of competitive, peroxide-generating streptococci.
  • (4) Studies were conducted in isolated, buffer-perfused rat lungs to determine if prostaglandin (PG) E1 attenuated pulmonary edema provoked by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).
  • (5) Spontaneous lipid peroxidation in washed human spermatozoa was induced by aerobic incubation at 32 C and measured by malonaldehyde production; loss of motility during the incubation was determined simultaneously.
  • (6) Changes in the plasma lipid composition are observed in patients and animals with malignancy and certain other diseases that are consistent with peroxidation of plasma lipoprotein lipids.
  • (7) Phenobarbital pretreatment increased peroxidation due to exposure of the cells to CCl4 but not that associated with NADPH addition.
  • (8) Both fatty acid composition and the degree of lipid peroxidation were measured in this study in 23 OTC fish oil preparations.
  • (9) With the use of two methods, measurement of conjugated dienes and thiobarbituric acid reactivity, brain lipid peroxidation could be documented as a result of exposure to CO at a concentration sufficient to cause unconsciousness.
  • (10) In the cytochrome P-450-reconstituted system, CCl4 stimulated NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation of the system containing the P-450 form to a much greater extent than that of the system containing the P-448 form.
  • (11) The in vivo hepatic lipid peroxide content of rats was increased by aspirin or 4-pentenoic acid (4-PA) administration but was decreased by clofibrate (CPIB) administration.
  • (12) A water based 5% benzoyl peroxide gel (Benzac W5) was compared with topical 1% clindamycin phosphate solution (Cleocin T) in the treatment of acne vulgaris using a randomized, investigator blind study design.
  • (13) M & B 22948, a guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP)-selective phosphodiesterase inhibitor, enhanced the vasodilation or relaxation to the peroxide in both preparations.
  • (14) Accordingly, the 30-fold differences in aging rate among the mammalian species could be determined in part by peroxidation defense processes.
  • (15) Hence, the 2-NOF:N-acetoxy-N-2-fluorenylacetamide ratios reflect the relative contributions of the two peroxidative pathways to the metabolism of N-OH-2-FAA.
  • (16) Vanadate-dependent oxidation of either pyridine nucleotide was inhibited by the addition of either superoxide dismutase or catalase, indicating that both superoxide and hydrogen peroxide may be intermediates in the process.
  • (17) Compared with 39 control subjects, 39 antioxidant-supplemented men experienced the following net reductions during the double-blind period: 20% (P = 0.012) in serum lipid peroxides, 24% (P = 0.035) in ADP-induced platelet aggregation, 42% (P = 0.040) in the rate of ATP release during aggregation, 51% (P = 0.018) in serum (platelet-produced) thromboxane B2, and 29% (P = 0.024) in plasma beta-thromboglobulin concentration.
  • (18) Protection against O2 toxicity was assessed in terms of lethality and pulmonary edema and of lung lipid peroxidation (assessed by measuring malondialdehyde).
  • (19) Serum GSSRase activity, however, was significantly decreased while serum vitamin E, and lipid peroxidation levels were significantly increased.
  • (20) From these results it is suggested that the lipid peroxidation of the brush-border membranes by addition of dithiothreitol plus Fe2+ is sensitively changed with change in ionic strength.

Persalt


Definition:

  • (n.) A term formerly given to the salts supposed to be formed respectively by neutralizing acids with certain peroxides.
