Glossary Ozone

molecule composed of three oxygen atoms, known as O3

Ozone, also known as O3 or trioxygen, is a molecule composed of three oxygen atoms. It is found in the Earth's stratosphere, where it forms the ozone layer that protects life by absorbing the majority of the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation. At ground level, however, ozone is a pollutant that can cause respiratory problems and other health issues.

research Ozone interactions with human hair: Ozone uptake rates and product formation

93 citations , February 2008 in “Atmospheric environment”

In this study, researchers found that human scalp hair, particularly when unwashed, can significantly react with ozone, reducing personal ozone exposure and increasing exposure to volatile reaction products.

research Possible Therapeutic Effects of Ozone Mixture on Hypoxia in Tumor Development

25 citations , February 2017 in “Anticancer Research/Anticancer research”

This review discusses the potential of ozone therapy as an adjuvant to radio-chemotherapy for cancer patients, noting enhanced treatment effects and improved quality of life, but it presents no new research findings.

research Proinflammatory Event of Ozonized Olive Oil in Mice

13 citations , May 2009 in “Ozone Science and Engineering”

This study found that while ozonized olive oil inhibited swelling in a mouse model of hypersensitivity, it also induced inflammatory responses and hair loss with repeated skin application, indicating potential adverse effects.

research Ozone and procaine increase secretion of platelet-derived factors in platelet-rich plasma

1 citations , October 2023 in “European journal of histochemistry”

This study demonstrated that treating platelet-rich plasma with ozone or procaine in vitro led to distinct changes in platelet activity, significantly enhancing the release of platelet-derived factors without damaging the platelets, indicating potential for improved regenerative therapies.

research The effect of low-intensity electromagnetic radiation of the EHF band and ozone therapy on the state of tissue blood flow in the skin flap

1 citations , May 2024 in “International journal of medicine and psychology.”

In this study, researchers found that using electromagnetic radiation in the EHF range enhanced the engraftment of skin flaps in rats by improving microcirculation and reducing necrosis, with greater effects observed when paired with systemic ozone therapy.
