  • The vibronic emission spectra of isomeric trimethylbenzyl radicals were reassigned based on substituent effect on electronic transition energy as well as ab initio calculation of the benzyl radical. The electronic transition energy of three isomeric jet-cooled trimethylbenzyl radicals produced by corona discharge of 1,2,3,5-tetramethylbenzene were analyzed using the empirical data of three isomeric methylbenzyl radicals. Calculated data were obtained by summing up the shifts measured from methylbenzyl radicals as well as taking the position and alignment of substituents on the benzene ring into account. The revised assignments show better agreement with observation, and rationalize the validity of the model developed to explain the substituent effect on electronic transition energy of benzyl radicals.

  • Epilepsy is a neurological disorder from many molecular and biochemical responses. In the underlying mechanism, free radicals play an important role in seizure initiation and seizure-induced brain damage. Excessive production of oxygen free radicals and other radical species have been implicated in the development of seizures under pathological conditions and linked to seizure-induced neurodegeneration.

  • This paper presents an investigation on $C_2$, CH, OH radicals and NOx emissions in partially premixed flames with acoustic excitation. The radicals are visualized by the digital image technique with optical filters and ICCD camera while NOx emissions are determined by a chemiluminescent detection(NOx analyser). The measurements are made in flames with an overall equivalence ratio (${\phi}_o$) 0.5 and a center tube equivalence ratio(${\phi}_c$) varing from 1.1 to 5.0 for a constant fuel flow rate. In the case of excitation, the visual shape of the flame is changed from laminar to turbulent-like flames. Images of $C_2$, CH, and OH radicals resemble those of the flame appearances as the excitation phase is varied, and the radicals generated at the upstream are convected toward the downstream. It is inferred that the flame characteristics is affected by the flow characteristics of air-fuel mixture. In the case of acoustic excitation, OH radicals are much increased relative to unexcitation. From the radicals and flame visualization under acoustic excitation, the reduction of flame length affects the shorter residence time of center tube mixture, and significantly influences the NOx reduction.

  • Recently, free radicals such as active oxygen species, nitric oxide, etc are believed to be one of the key substances in physiological and pathological, toxicological phenomena, and oxidative damages, and all organism have defencing system against such as free radicals. Formation and extinction of free radicals may be regulated through bio-redox system, in which various enzymes and compounds should be involved in very complicated manner. Thus, direct and non-invasive measurement of in vivo free radical reactions with living animals must be essential to understand the role of free radicals in pathophysiological phenomena. Electron spin resonance spectroscopy (ESR) is very selective and sensitive technique to detect free radicals, but a conventional ESR spectrometer has large detect in application to living animals, since high frequent microwave is absorbed with water, resulting in generation of high fever in living body. In order to estimate in vivo free radical reactions in living whole animals, we develop in vivo ESR-CT technique using nitroxide radicals as spin probes. Nitroxide radicals and their reduced forms, hydroxylamines, are known to interact with various redox systems. We found that! ! the signal decay due to reduction of nitroxyl radicals is influenced by aging, inspired oxygen concentration, ischemia-referfusion injury, radiation, etc. In the present paper, I will introduce in vivo ESR technique and my laboratory recent results concerning non-invasive evaluation of free radical reactions in living mice.

  • Otitis media with effusion (OME) is an inflammatory disease of the middle ear cleft. Oxygen free radicals have been implicated in a variety of inflammatory disorders. Oxygen free radicals may also be involved in the pathogenesis of OME. To evaluate the involvement of oxygen free radicals in the pathogenesis of OME, the level of malondialdehyde, which gives an index of lipid peroxidation by oxygen free radicals, was measured by the reaction with thiobarbituric acid. Malondialdehyde level in the middle ear fluid from the OME group was higher than that in the normal control group. Malondialdehyde level in the middle ear fluid from a mucoid subgroup was higher than that in the serous subgroup. Malondialdehyde levels in the middle ear fluid from the serous subgroup was significantly correlated with symptom duration. The Pearson correlation coefficient between malondialdehyde levels in the middle ear fluid from the serous subgroup and symptom duration was 0.842 (P<0.05). These results indicate that lipid peroxidation by oxygen free radicals may be involved in the pathogenesis of human OME.

  • A substitution effect on the electronic transition of bi-substituted benzyl-type radicals was discovered. The origin of the electronic D1 → D0 transition of benzyl-type radicals was red-shifted upon substitution to the benzene ring. For symmetric bi-substituted benzyl-type radicals, it was found that the predicted shift obtained from mono-substituted benzyl-type radicals agreed well with the observation. The reason for this agreement is believed that the substituent contributes independently to the electronic energy. The substitution effect was applied to the symmetric bi-substituted difluoro-, dichloro- and dimethylbenzyl radicals.

  • An electron spin resonance study has been made on lysozyme in. frozen aqueous solutions irradiated with $_{60}Co$ r-rays in air at $77^{circ}K.$ Water resonances are dominant when the concentration and the temperature are both below 20% and $130^{circ}K$ respectively. More solute radicals are produced in the solution of higher concentration. Majority of the solute radicals results from direct hit of the radiation. The same types of radicals are induced at $77^{circ}K$ whether the substances are irradiated in the dry state or in frozen aqueous solution. Based on these results, it is assumed that the number of ESR centers produced by the secondary intermolecular radical reacions and stabilized in aqueous solutions may depend on the concentration of the solution, and the presence of water may facilitate the secondary radical reactions occuring in the solute molecules after heat treatment. Majority of the solute radicals above around $193^{circ}K$ are believed to react with oxygen to form peroxytype radicals. However, when the solution is subiected to heat-treatment at $265^{circ}K$ after irradiation at $195^{circ}K$ the peroxy-type resonance was not observed, suggestin that an appreciable amount of oxygen is condensed into the ice, at $77^{circ}K.$ in addition to the oxygen that has already been dissolved in solution and react with solute free radicals during the process of heat-treatment. When the solution contains $H_2O_2$, no water resonance but $HO_2$, type resonance was observed probably indicating that the radiation-induced OH radicals are trapped in $H_2O_2$ aggregates and react readily with $H_2O_2$ molecules to poroduce $HO_2$ type radicals even at $77^{circ}K.$.

  • 1. Objectives The purpose of this research is to find out the Constitutional difference of Oxidative stress by Free oxygen radicals. 2. Methods We enrolled 55 patients who visited our hospital for medical examination from February 1, 2006 to May 31, 2006. This research investigated the Constitutional difference of Oxidative stress by Free oxygen radicals. 3. Results and Conclusions l) The Sasang Constitutional distribution of patients have oxidatative stress by Free oxygen radicals was Taeunmin 30%(8persons of total 27persons), Soeumin 56%(9persons of total 16persons), Soyangin 33%(4persons of total 12persons). The rate of patients have oxidatate stress was high in Soeumin. The Sasang Constitution had significance relation with oxidatative stress by Free oxygen radicals. 2) Triglyceride on the average of Taeumin patients have oxidatative stress by Free oxygen radicals is ststistical significantly higher than Triglyceride on the average of controlled normal persons in Taeumin(p-value=0.010) and Soyangin(p-value=0.015). Blood uric acid level on the average of patients have oxidatate stress by Free oxygen radicals is ststistical significantly lower than Blood uric acid level on the average of controlled normal persons in Taeumin(p-value=0.004) and Soyangin(p-value=0.037). This research has shown that there is a statistical significance between the Triglyceride level, Blood uric acid level and oxidatate stress by Free oxygen radicals.
