On dithiothreitol (DTT) as a measure of oxidative potential for ambient particles: evidence for the importance of soluble ewline transition metals

The rate of consumption of dithiothreitol (DTT) is increasingly used to measure the oxidative potential of particulate matter (PM), which has been linked to the adverse health effects of PM. While several quinones are known to be very reactive in the DTT assay, it is unclear what other chemical spec...
