✦ Synopsis


An electron spin resonance flow technique was utilized to follow the concentration of thiyl free radicals (RS-) generated upon the oxidation of cysteine with ceric ion over the 0.25-7.5 pH range. The thiyl free radical concentration was seen to decrease with increasing pH in a manner dependent on the extent of ionization of cysteine. The formation of thiyl free radicals was favored by the proportion of thiol present in the positively charged form. The diminution of RS. spin concentration a t physiological pH was correlated with the increasing prevalence of singly and doubly negative thiolate ions. At acidic pH's below 1.5, thiyl free radical formation was depressed by solutions of high ionic strength. The utility of this technique in studying the potential role of thiyl free radicals in radioprotective processes is indicated.
