Edge R, El-Agamey A, Land E, Navaratnam S, Truscott T
Arch Biochem Biophys . 2006 Dec; 458(2):104-10. PMID: 17188230
The relative reduction potentials of a variety of carotenoids have been established by monitoring the reaction of carotenoid radical anion (CAR1(*-)) with another carotenoid (CAR2) in hexane and benzene. This...

El-Agamey A, Edge R, Navaratnam S, Land E, Truscott T
Org Lett . 2006 Sep; 8(19):4255-8. PMID: 16956200
In this study, we report the protonation reactions for astaxanthin and canthaxanthin radical anions in methanol, alkaline methanol, and aqueous 2% Triton X-100 at different pH values. The pKa values...

Rozanowska M, Cantrell A, Edge R, Land E, Sarna T, Truscott T
Free Radic Biol Med . 2005 Nov; 39(10):1399-405. PMID: 16257649
Vitamin A (retinol) and its derivatives-retinal and retinoic acid-are known for their ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation. Antioxidant actions of retinoids have been attributed to chain-breaking by scavenging of peroxyl...

Broniec A, Pawlak A, Sarna T, Wielgus A, Roberts J, Land E, et al.
Free Radic Biol Med . 2005 Mar; 38(8):1037-46. PMID: 15780762
A pyridinium bisretinoid (A2E) is the only identified blue-absorbing chromophore of retinal lipofuscin that has been linked to its aerobic photoreactivity and phototoxicity. Pulse radiolysis has been used to study...

El-Agamey A, Lowe G, McGarvey D, Mortensen A, Phillip D, Truscott T, et al.
Arch Biochem Biophys . 2004 Aug; 430(1):37-48. PMID: 15325910
The purpose of this review is to summarise the current state of knowledge of (i) the kinetics and mechanisms of radical reactions with carotenoids, (ii) the properties of carotenoid radicals,...

El-Agamey A, Cantrell A, Land E, McGarvey D, Truscott T
Photochem Photobiol Sci . 2004 Aug; 3(8):802-11. PMID: 15295638
Carotenoids play diverse roles in biology and medicine. Both the quenching of singlet oxygen (energy transfer) and interaction with oxy-radicals (electron transfer, H-atom transfer and addition reactions) are key processes...

Wrona M, Korytowski W, Rozanowska M, Sarna T, Truscott T
Free Radic Biol Med . 2003 Nov; 35(10):1319-29. PMID: 14607531
The aim of this study was to determine whether alpha-tocopherol and zeaxanthin offer synergistic protection against photosensitized lipid peroxidation mediated by singlet oxygen and free radicals. The antioxidant action of...

Cantrell A, McGarvey D, Truscott T, Rancan F, Bohm F
Arch Biochem Biophys . 2003 Mar; 412(1):47-54. PMID: 12646267
The ability of several dietary carotenoids to quench singlet oxygen in a model membrane system (unilamellar DPPC liposomes) has been investigated. Singlet oxygen was generated in both the aqueous and...
