Abstract
A spin-trapping technique was applied to the detection of free radicals generated in nicotinamide-adenine denucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-dependent lipid peroxidation of rat ischemic brain homogenate. The spin adduct of phenyl-t-butylnitrone if(AN = 16.2-16.5 g, Aβ H = 3.6-3.8 g) was observed, and it was thought to be derived from NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation from its oxygen and NADPH dependency. Its intensity was increased in the recirculated condition following ischemic insult, indicating the susceptibility of brain tissue to lipid peroxidation in such a condition.
