Bioactivity | Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is the only antioxidant enzyme that scavenges the superoxide anion by converting this free radical to oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, thus preventing peroxynitrite production and further damage. Superoxide dismutase is extensively researched and used in anti-inflammatory, antitumor, radiation protection, and antisenility applications[1]. |
