peroxiderelated
Peroxiderelated is an adjective used to describe phenomena, compounds, or processes that involve peroxides or peroxide-driven chemistry. It commonly refers to reactions involving O-O bonds such as hydrogen peroxide, organic hydroperoxides, and peroxides used as oxidants, as well as secondary products formed by peroxide reactions, including lipid hydroperoxides and other oxidation products.
In chemistry, peroxiderelated reactions include radical initiation by homolysis of O-O bonds, oxidation of substrates by
In biology and medicine, peroxiderelated processes are central to oxidative stress, signaling, and damage. H2O2 acts
In environmental science and industry, peroxides are used as disinfectants and initiators for polymerization; atmospheric chemistry
