Oxygen free radicals can be blamed for evoking gastric mucosal damage, because of the protective effect of some lipid soluble free radical scavengers (vitamin A related compounds, Vitamin E). Direct determination of free oxygen radicals related chemical entities in the gastric tissue during ulcerogenesis yielded controversial results. Aluminum antacid compound together with acid binding property exhibited cytoprotection too, elevating the tissue PGE2 level substantially. Magnesium containing antacid according to our model experiments on red blood cells damage by free radicals, is capable to bind free radicals as well as to counteract with the dangerous intracellular calcium accumulation. It has been concluded that aluminum-magnesium antacid has a cytoprotective effect via: 1. acid binding; 2. prostaglandin generation; 3. free radical scavenging; 4. calcium antagonist activity.

D002254 Carbonates Salts or ions of the theoretical carbonic acid, containing the radical CO2(3-). Carbonates are readily decomposed by acids. The carbonates of the alkali metals are water-soluble; all others are insoluble. (From Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed) Carbonate
D004578 Electron Spin Resonance Spectroscopy A technique applicable to the wide variety of substances which exhibit paramagnetism because of the magnetic moments of unpaired electrons. The spectra are useful for detection and identification, for determination of electron structure, for study of interactions between molecules, and for measurement of nuclear spins and moments. (From McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science and Technology, 7th edition) Electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopy is a variant of the technique which can give enhanced resolution. Electron spin resonance analysis can now be used in vivo, including imaging applications such as MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING.
