Background: The superoxide anion (O2－) is a short-lived radical production by the addition of an electron to oxygen. It is formed in response to environmental factors such as UV light, cigarette smoke, environmental pollutants, and g-radiation, or derived from oxidases like xanthine oxidase or NADPH oxidase. Once formed, O2－ attacks cellular components and causes damage to lipids, proteins and DNA. This can initiate numerous diseases, including cancer, atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, liver damage, and central nervous system disorders. The study of scavenging superoxide anion radicals has been gained more and more attention.
