Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on biological oxidations: xix. sulfhydryl enzymes in carbohydrate metabolism
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on the mechanism of action of ionizing radiations i. inhibition of enzymes by x-rays
TL;DR: Inhibition of the non-sulfhydryl enzymes trypsin, catalase, and ribonuclease, which required larger amounts of x-rays, is attributed to protein denaturation, further evidence that inhibition of enzymes by ionizing radiations is due to the indirect action of the products of irradiated water rather than to direct ionization of the enzyme through collision with the ionizing radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on biological oxidations v. copper and hemochromogens as catalysts for the oxidation of ascorbic acid. the mechanism of the oxidation
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that ascorbic acid is not autoxidizable in acid and neutral solutions up to pH 7.0, and that the rate of autoxidation increases considerably as the pH increases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on the mechanism of action of ionizing radiations : vi. the oxidation of thiols by ionizing radiations
TL;DR: When the thiol solutions were irradiated in the presence of dissolved oxygen, catalase protected them from oxidation by 17 to 27 per cent, and the ionic yield varied with the hydrogen ion concentration, increasing as the pH value increased.
