Mannitol as an OH. scavenger in aqueous solutions and in biological systems.
By using the technique of pulse radiolysis to generate OH. radicals, we have determined through the competition with SCN-, I- and Fe(CN)4-(6) the rate constant of mannitol with OH. radical at pH = 7 to be (1.8 +/- 0.4) X 10(9)M-1 s-1.
