González-Sánchez, Francisco García-Carmona, Hermenegilda Macià, Edelmira Valero Hydrogen peroxide triggers a redox cycle between methemoglobin and ferrylhemoglobin, leading to protein inactivation and oxygen evolution. In the present paper, the catalase-like oxygen production by human methemoglobin in the presence of H2O2was kinetically characterized with a Clark-type electrode.
