[Chemoluminescence induced by t-butyl hydroperoxide increases under the effect of cigarette smoke (preliminary report)].
Cigarette-smoke in determined quantity was streamed through physiologic saline solution, or blood plasma or ex vivo excised rat lung. The solutions as well as the supernatants from lung tissue homogenate showed a significantly increased chemiluminescence after t-butyl hydroperoxide (BHP)-induction. The method reflects an expressive activity of free radical reactions caused by the smoke.
