Iron--EDTA was shown to catalyse OH. production from H2O2 and ascorbate by a mechanism largely independent of superoxide. When ascorbate and superoxide were both present, the ascorbate mechanism was more important than superoxide as a source of OH., and would appear to be more significantly biologically.
铁-乙二胺四乙酸(Iron--EDTA)被证明可通过一种很大程度上独立于超氧化物的机制催化过氧化氢(H2O2)和抗坏血酸盐产生羟基自由基(OH.)。当抗坏血酸盐和超氧化物同时存在时,作为羟基自由基来源,抗坏血酸盐机制比超氧化物机制更重要,而且在生物学上似乎更显著。
