Carbohydrates and Their Free Radical Scavenging Capability: A Theoretical Study

A density functional theory (DFT) study on the free radical (OH• and OOH•) scavenging properties of some mono- and polysaccharides is presented. Two mechanisms, single electron transfer (SET) and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), are considered. The former mechanism is studied by making use of the verti...
