Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The validity of using chloramine-T as a model compound for mimicing oxidative stress was examined using human serum albumin (HSA) as a model. Important sites of oxidation were studied by mild treatment with chloramine-T and by mutating 34Cys for a serine (C34S). METHODS: High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) combined with fluorescence detection to confirm the validity of chloramine-T as an...
