text: Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is a powerful oxidant which is highly reactive towards a range of biological substrates.
text: Among ROS, hypochlorous acid (HOCl/OCl−) is a highly reactive oxygen species produced from hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and chloride ions (Cl−) by the enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO), which is secreted by activated neutrophils.3
text: Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is highly reactive and quite unstable; its salts are mostly used for their bleaching and sterilising abilities.
