Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The well-established mechanism of regeneration of the parent nitro compound by the reaction of the nitro anion radical with oxygen in aerobic systems is the basis of the correlation of kinetic parameters of purified flavoenzymes with electron affinities of some selected nitroaryl and nitroheterocyclic compounds. We have found that there is a linear relationship between log V max / Km and the one-electron reduction potentials of these compounds and that the measured values of redox dependence for these compounds is similar to that determined by other methods. Our results support the proposal of a rate-determining single electron-transfer as the initial step in the reduction of nitro compounds by purified flavoenzymes and are discussed in terms of the Marcus electron transfer theory.
