  • Title: Chronic hydrogen peroxide intake and peroxide metabolizing enzyme activities in some tissues of mice and rats.
    Author: Kihlström M, Salminen A, Vihko V.
    Journal: Experientia; 1986 Sep 15; 42(9):1018-20. PubMed ID: 3758300.
    Abstract:
    Chronic daily intake of 0.5% H2O2 in drinking water decreased Se-dependent glutathione peroxidase (Se-GSHPx) activity in rat skeletal muscle, kidney and liver. Non-Se GSHPx activity decreased in kidney. Deprivation of drinking water decreased Se-GSHPx activity in kidney and non-Se GSHPx activity in kidney and liver. H2O2 intake decreased activity of catalase in rat skeletal muscle. H2O2 intake or water deprivation caused no changes in these enzyme activities in mice.
