  • Title: Sonochemistry of quinones in argon-saturated aqueous solutions: enhanced cytochrome c reduction.
    Author: Lawson RC, Ferrer A, Flores W, Alegría AE.
    Journal: Chem Res Toxicol; 1999 Sep; 12(9):850-4. PubMed ID: 10490507.
    Abstract:
    Sonolysis of argon-saturated aqueous quinone solutions resulted in an enhancement in ferricytochrome c (Cyt c) reduction. Upon addition of superoxide dismutase, Cyt c reduction was partially inhibited, thus implying a role of superoxide ion in this reduction process. Neither quinone hydrophobicity nor reduction potential exclusively controls the Cyt c reduction enhancement, although a preference for hydrophobicity versus reduction potential is noted.
