Freeze Quench: O-17 Hyperfine Splitting in Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectrum of Enzymically Generated Superoxide
The electron paramagnetic
resonance spectrum of 17O in O2
.- generated during steady-state oxidation of xanthine catalyzed by xanthine oxidase. Both the 11-line
spectrum from 17O17O.- and the six-
line spectrum from 17O16O.- were
detected. The results provide final confirmation that one-electron reduction of oxygen can occur in biological systems

Snap Freeze: Detection of Nitrosyl Hemoglobin in Venous Blood in the Treatment of Sickle Cell Anemia with Hydroxyurea
The nitrosyl hemoglobin complex could be detected as early as 30 min after administration of hydroxyurea and persisted up to 4 h. Our observations support the hypothesis that the ability of hydroxyurea to ease the vaso-occlusive phenomena may, in part, be attributed to vasodilation and/or decreased platelet activation induced by nitric oxide.

Summary of How to Catch A Radical
Stop decay by freezing
1) Freeze quench (millisecond)
2) Snap freeze (seconds)
Steady-state by continuous generation
1) Flat cells with ample substrates
2) Rapid sampling for kinetics on second time scale
3) Fast-flow for radicals with diffusion-limited second-order decay
Spin trapping
1) Has a higher steady-state concentration than direct ESR because of the slower decay rate of the radical adduct
2) In vivo spin trapping is possible for extremely stable radical adducts
