Acceleration or deceleration of MT breakage by hydrogen peroxide or ROS removers. A total of 0.44 mol/L hydrogen peroxide accelerates the MT breakage, whereas 50 mmol/L sodium azide and 4 mmol/L ascorbic acid slows it down. Ascorbic acid is more effective in preventing MTs from breaking. Fluorescent MTs in PEMT without addition of other reagents is as control.
