Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the important aspects of the solution chemistry
of nitrogen oxide (NO) and reactive nitrogen oxide species (RNOS), biochemical targets of …

Cell misidentification and cross-contamination have plagued biomedical research for as
long as cells have been employed as research tools. Examples of misidentified cell lines …

Substituted diazen-1-ium-1,2-diolates have proved useful as tools in enzymology and other
pharmacological research applications in which spontaneous generation of nitric oxide …

A recent discovery in mammalian biology has been the important physiological role that
nitric oxide plays in blood pressure regulation, neurotransmission, macrophage-in-duced …

The role of cell authentication in biomedical science has received considerable attention,
especially within the past decade. This quality control attribute is now beginning to be given …

The O-dealkylation of pentoxyresorufin (7-pentoxyphenoxazone) by rat liver microsomes was
examined. The reaction appeared highly specific for certain phenobarbital inducible forms …

Asno=(6±2) X 106 M™ 2 s-1, a value identical to that forthe formation of reactive intermediates
in the autoxidation of NO. Competition studies performed with a variety of aminoacids, …

This study was undertaken to determine the amount of ellagic acid, a naturally occurring
inhibitor of carcinogenesis, in various fruits and nuts. Ellagic acid was extracted from freeze-…

The effect of nitric oxide (NO) on cytochrome P450-mediated benzyloxyresorufin and
ethoxyresorufin O-dealkylase activity of rat hepatic postmitochondrial (S-9) or microsomal …

Continuous human cell lines have been used extensively as models for biomedical research.
In working with these cell lines, researchers are often unaware of the risk of cross‐…
