ESR spectra of hydroxyl free radicals based on DI water and PIA water. (a) Spectra of DI water (black line) and PIA water (red line) for reference. (b) Spectra of DI water plus the antioxidant L-ascorbic acid (black line) and PIA water plus L-ascorbic acid (1.775 µM) (red line). Hydroxyl free radicals were obtained using the well-known Fenton reaction, in which ferrous iron donates an electron to hydrogen peroxide to produce a hydroxyl free radical.
