Description

Redox reactions and oxidative stress has been implicated as an important factor in the progression of many disease conditions, such as hemorrhage, inflammation, infection, ischemia-reperfusion and tumor targeted radiation. During these conditions increased levels of free radicals are generated, causing an imbalance in the redox-system that leads to oxidation of cells and molecules and subsequent tissue and organ damage.
