Pulse radiolysis, free radicals and antiparasitic drugs.
Free radicals have been proposed to be of significance in several important aspects of parasitology because of their generation during parasitic infection and chemotherapy, and their potential for causing cellular damage. Roger Bisby describes how radiation chemical methods, and pulse radiolysis in particular, may be used to generate and study free radicals that are of interest in parasitology.
