About The Author
This page presents an autobiography explaining the author's interests in science,
biochemistry, nutrition, prevention, alternative medicine, detoxification and
eventually oxidant therapies.
shuttles discussed are: iron, copper, manganese, molybdenum, iron sulfur centers,
alcohols, sugars, enediols, phenols, polyphenols, quinols, ascorbates, thiols,
glutathione, lipoic acid, cysteine residues in proteins, imines, pyridiniums, favins,
pyrroles, phenazines, biopterin and folates. The above provides a background in
biochemistry for understanding: free radicals and oxidant stress, quenching
mechanisms and antioxidants, redox control over synthesis and apoptosis, and
oxidant therapies.
