Why superoxide anion radical (O2.-) in named so. Is there any specific reason?
This in an interesting question because, as Halliwell and Gutteridge stated, "With only one unpaired electron, superoxide is less 'radical' than O2, despite its 'super' name.".
Ya true. Probably a chemist can answer it better.
Can any body let me know the current source for the download of Image J software.
