The Effect of Dihydroquercetin on Catalytic Activity of Iron

Dihydroquercetin is a natural flavonoid with antioxidant properties that are determined by its ability to scavenge free radicals and chelate transition metal ions. Chemiluminescent studies showed that iron (II) ions in complex with dihydroquercetin are inactive and cannot catalyze decomposition of h...

More Information
Summary:Dihydroquercetin is a natural flavonoid with antioxidant properties that are determined by its ability to scavenge free radicals and chelate transition metal ions. Chemiluminescent studies showed that iron (II) ions in complex with dihydroquercetin are inactive and cannot catalyze decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (Fenton reaction). Key Words: dihydroquercetin; taxifolin; chelation of iron ions; Fenton reaction; chemiluminescence
