Through macroscopic experiments and thermodynamic modeling, this work demonstrates the precipitation and oxidation of transition metals in phosphate-based in vitro assays.
Transition metals in particulate matter (PM) are hypothesized to have enhanced toxicity based on their oxidative potential (OP). The acellular dithiothreitol (DTT) assay is widely used to measure the OP...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
