Abstract
Peracetic acid (PAA) is an emerging oxidant and disinfectant for wastewater (WW) treatment due to limited harmful disinfection byproduct (DBP) formation. Nitrite (NO2-) is a ubiquitous anion in water, but the impact of NO2- on PAA oxidation and disinfection has been largely overlooked. This work found for the first time that NO2- could significantly promote the oxidation of sulfonamide antibiotics (SAs) by PAA. Unexpectedly, the reactive nitrogen species (RNS), for example, peroxynitrite (ONOO-), rather than conventional organic radicals (R-O•) or reactive oxygen species (ROS), played major roles in SAs degradation. A kinetic model based on first-principles was developed to elucidate the reaction mechanism and simulate reaction kinetics of the PAA/NO2- process. Structural activity assessment and quantum chemical calculations showed that RNS tended to react with an aromatic amine group, resulting in more conversion of NO2--N to organic-N. The formation of nitrated and nitrosated byproducts and the enhancement of trichloronitromethane formation potential might be a prevalent problem in the PAA/NO2- process. This study provides new insights into the reaction of PAA with NO2- and sheds light on the potential risks of PAA in WW treatment in the presence of NO2-.

Novel quercetin derivatives in treatment of peroxynitrite-oxidized SERCA1. Mol Cell Biochem 2013; 386:1-14.

Abstract
Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATP-ase (SERCA) is regulated by low concentrations of peroxynitrite and inhibited by high levels, as indicated in human diseases. We studied quercetin (Q) and its novel derivatives monochloropivaloylquercetin (MPQ) and chloronaphthoquinonequercetin (CHQ) as agents with expected preventive properties against peroxynitrite-induced SERCA impairment. Q and MPQ protected the SERCA1 against peroxynitrite induced activity decrease, while CHQ potentiated the inhibitory effect of peroxynitrite. Quercetin derivatives were found to be weaker antioxidants compared with Q, as indicated by their ability to scavenge peroxynitrite and prevent of SERCA1 carbonylation, both decreasing in the order (Q > MPQ > CHQ). Quantum-chemical values of theoretical parameter E HOMO also indicated lower antioxidant capacities for MPQ and CHQ. Prooxidant properties estimated by calculations of frontier molecular orbitals (E LUMO) correlated with experimentally determined SH-group decrease induced by the compounds studied. Both methods showed a decrease of prooxidant properties as follows: CHQ > MPQ > Q. In addition, experimentally measured half-wave potentials indicated stronger prooxidant properties of quercetin derivatives as compared to Q. More expressive alterations of conformation in the transmembrane region of SERCA1 induced by quercetin derivatives, as compared with Q, may at least partially correlate with their higher lipophilicities. The protective effects of Q and MPQ on different isoforms of SERCA activity may be useful in prevention and treatment of inflammation or muscle diseases. The inhibitory effect of CHQ on SERCA isoforms may be beneficial in therapeutic approaches aimed at anti-tumor treatment.
