Transformed from p-phenylenediamines (PPDs) antioxidant, PPD-derived quinones (PPD-Qs) have recently been recognized as emerging contaminants due to their potential negative impacts on the environment and human health. While there have been measurements of airborne PPD-Qs, the size distribution of PPD-Qs and the impact of particle size on PPD transformati ...

Polyphenols have a variety of phenolic hydroxyl and carbonyl functionalities that enable them to scavenge many oxidants, thereby preserving the human redox balance and preventing a number of oxidative stress-related chronic degenerative diseases. In our ongoing investigation of polyphenol-rich plants in search of novel molecules, we resumed the investigat ...

Background: The oxidative stress (OS) theory of disease stipulates that a chronic imbalance in the ratio of oxidants to antioxidants in the cellular environment leads to a variety of debilitating conditions, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular and liver diseases. Metabolites in the gut microbiome have been associated with increases in reactive oxyge ...
