title: Effects of scavengers of superoxide radicals, hydrogen peroxide, singlet oxygen and hydroxyl radicals on malondialdehyde generation from arachidonic acid by bovine seminal vesicle microsomes.
abstract: Superoxide dismutase, catalase and sodium formate did not inhibit the formation of malondialdehyde (MDA) from arachidonic acid, suggesting that O2-., H2O2 and OH. are not involved in the enzymatical oxidation of arachidonic acid. Sodium azide was found to be an inhibitor of MDA production.
