Activation of polymorphonuclear (PMN) leukocytes is known to generate oxygen free radicals (OFR). However the fate of activated PMN leukocytes is not known. We investigated the OFR producing (chemiluminescence) activity and the survival of the activated PMN leukocytes. The study was divided into two

Oxygen free radicals (OFRs) have been suggested in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). These free radicals exert their cytotoxic effect by peroxidation of lipid membrane resulting in the formation of malondialdehyde (MDA). Polymorphonuclear (PMN) leukocyte is one of the major sources of OF
A new method of exposing silicon/semiconductor wafers to a mixture of radicals is described, in which these species are generated in an oxygen-rich gas discharge confined between a concentric pair of annular mesh electrodes surrounding the wafers. This approach allows the wafer surfaces to be treate
