Homogenates from T. cruzi epimastigotes produced 3.4 pmoles H2O2/min 10(6) cells, as detected by the cytochrome c peroxidase assay. Addition of NADH or NADPH increased H2O2 production by a factor of 3 and 5, respectively. When supplemented with NADH and NADPH, the mitochondrial, microsomal and supernatant fractions produced H2O2, the soluble fraction and the mitochondrial membranes being apparently the main generators of H2O2. The epimastigote homogenates showed cyanide-sensitive superoxide dismutase activity, equivalent to 0.28 microgram bovine superoxide dismutase per mg homogenate protein.
