The photon source within the cell
Original language description
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are strong oxidants known to oxidize electron-rich organic molecules including lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. The oxidation of lipids initiated by radical ROS (superoxide anion, perhydroxyl and hydroxyl radicals), non-radical ROS (singlet oxygen, hydrogen peroxide) or by enzymatic reaction pathway (lipoxygenase) results in the formation of peroxyl radicals. The re-combination of two peroxyl radicals via Russell mechanism and cyclization of peroxyl radicals form lineartetroxide and cyclic dioxetane intermediates that decompose to the triplet excited carbonyls [3(R=O)*] and singlet oxygen (1O2). The experimental evidence indicates that these electronically excited species are the main emitters responsible for ultra-weak photon emission from biological systems. In addition to lipid peroxyl radicals, other biological peroxyl radicals including peroxyl radicals in protein and nucleic acids may participate in the ultraweak photon emission from biological s
