title: [Role of 02- ions in formation of N'-formylkynurenine from tryptophan].
abstract: Evidence for the involvement of O-2 ions in the formation of N'-Formylkynurenine, a major tryptophan oxidation product is presented on the basis of radiolysis and electrochemistry data. The biological importance of such a reaction is discussed.
