title: Assessments of thiyl radicals in biosystems: difficulties and new applications.
abstract: The high reactivity of thiyl radicals (RS(•)), which results in half-lives on the order of microseconds, hinders their analysis in biological systems. This Feature reviews the contemporary approaches to assessment of RS(•) using EPR spin trapping, mass spectrometric, immunological, and HPLC protocols.
