FIG. 3.

The relationship between different reactive oxygen species (ROS). The two major subsets, free radicals and nonradical derivatives, are shown with illustrations showing how members of each are related to each other. There are several sources of superoxide (·O2−), which can subsequently be converted to other ROS such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and peroxynitrite (ONOO-).
