We kinetically studied the reaction between endogenous thiols such as -c-glutamylcysteine (c-Glu-Cys), cysteine (Cys), glutathione (GSH), homocysteine (Hcy), cysteinylglycine (Cys-Gly), and dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA)- ...

Thiol-disulfide exchange reactions are highly reversible, displaying nucleophilic substitutions mechanism (S(N)2 type). For aliphatic, low molecular thiols, these reactions are slow, but can attain million times faster ...

Nonprotein thiols are considered radioprotectors, preventing DNA damage by ionizing radiation. Because bleomycin (BLM) is a radiomimetic agent, it was proposed that thiols may prevent DNA damage produced by this antibiotic. ...

This report describes the yellowing of visible light-cured thiol-ene networks formulated with Camphorquinone (CQ) as photoactivator. CQ displays an intense dark yellow color due to the presence of a conjugated diketone ...

Non-protein thiols are considered radioprotectors, preventing DNA damage by ionizing radiation. As bleomycin (BLM) is a radiomimetic agent it was proposed that thiols may prevent DNA damage produced by this antibiotic. ...

Thiol-ene systems have attracted considerable recent interest because they display efficient, versatile and selective “click” reactions. In this study, thiol-methacrylate networks based on a tetrafunctional thiol (PTMP) ...

Peroxynitrite is a highly reactive nitrogen species and when it is generated at high levels it causes nitrosative stress, an important cause of impaired sperm function. High levels of peroxynitrite have been shown to ...

In this paper we present a comparative analysis of the electrochemical stability of alkanethiols, aromatic and heterocyclic thiols on the Au(111) and Au(100) faces in relation to the theoretical energetic data. The peak ...
