Abstract

EUK-134 is a manganese-salen complex, derived from the parent molecule EUK-8, and is widely used in anti-aging skincare formulations because of its potent antioxidant activity, resulting from the catalytic decomposition of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Despite this popularity, the fundamental kinetic properties (
