Overview of generated radical species by the reaction of HOCl and different biomolecules. The HOCl-induced chlorination of free amino acids (a, [66]), proteins (b, [66]), nucleosides (c, [67]), glycosaminoglycans (d, [68]), and PLs (e, [69]) leads in various consecutive reactions (implied by three arrows) to different radical species which may cause oxidative stress and favor the development of many diseases.
