We explored the behaviour o f a series o f phenolic acids used as enhancers or inhibitors of luminol chemiluminescence by three different methods t o determine if behaviour was associated with phenolic acid structure and redox character. All the phenolic acids inhibited chemiluminescence when hexacy

✦ Synopsis
The intensity of 4-I-phenol-enhanced chemiluminescence from the luminol-H,O,-horseradish peroxidase system is markedly attenuated in the presence of low concentrations of non-enhancer phenols. Under the conditions studied, the effect is not associated with competition between 4-I-phenol and non-enhancer phenol for the enzyme intermediates, Compounds I and II, but involves a competition between nonenhancer phenol and luminol most probably for the 4-I-phenoxy radical.

## Abstract Tyrosine markedly attenuates the chemiluminescence output intensity from the 4‐iodophenol enhanced chemiluminescence assay system in a manner consistent with competition between the amino acid and luminol for the 4‐iodophenoxy radical. This effect provides the basis for a sensitive assa
Microbial pellets in the presence of south pole magnetic Ðelds demonstrate enhanced oxidation of phenol. Earlier work at 0É49 tesla indicates qualitatively that a unipolar north magnetic Ðeld inhibits and a south magnetic Ðeld accelerates phenol oxidation rates of an alginate immobilized, mixed bact
Phenols which markedly enhance chemiluminescence in the horseradish peroxidase catalysed oxidation of luminol by hydrogen peroxide show anomalously high reactivity (by factors of -102 compared with published Hammett correlations) in the reduction of the enzyme intermediates, Compound I and Compound
Systematic studies on phenol derivatives facilitates an explanation of the enhancement or inhibition of the luminol-H2O2-horseradish peroxidase system chemiluminescence. Factors that govern the enhancement are the one-electron reduction potentials of the phenoxy radicals (PhO./PhOH) vs. luminol radi
