Fe <sup>2+</sup> /H <sub>2</sub> O <sub>2</sub> -mediated oxidation of homogentisic acid indicates the production of ochronotic and non-ochronotic pigments. Implications in Alkaptonuria and beyond

Abstract excerpt

Homogentisic acid (HGA) can be oxidized by a combination of Fe 2+ and H 2 O 2 into a darkly colored high molecular mass pigment. Increasing the concentration of H 2 O 2 can lead to the formation of a high molecular mass material that exhibits less absorbance in the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum, while maintaining a strong absorbance in the UV range of the electromagnetic spectrum. FT-IR spectr...
