This volume provides a varied selection of current methods and molecular probes used to generate, image and quantify ROS production and lipid peroxidation. Chapters guide readers through methods and protocols on in silico modelling of ROS dynamics in biological systems and a breaking proposal. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and cutting-edge,
Reactive Oxygen Species: Methods and Protocols aims to ensure successful results in the further study of this vital field.
