A study of inactivation reactions of N-acetylcysteine with mucochloric acid, a mutagenic product of the chlorination of humic substances in water.

abstract：:Oxidative stress is believed to play a role in the pathogenesis of several diseases, including diabetes and inborn errors of metabolism. The types of oxidative damage observed in these pathologies have been attributed to the excessive production of reactive intermediates relating to the accumulation of toxic metabolit...
