Abstract
The oxidation mechanism of D-methioine(Met), L-methioine-methyl ester (MME) and Met-Met dipeptides by SO4.- was investigated by using 248 nm laser pho tolysis of K2S2O8 and absorption spectrum. The presence of three electron-r adical cation intermediated [S therefore S](+), [S therefore N](+) and [S t herefore O] were observed by transient absorption spectra. The results are compared to those of pulse radiolysis. A detail oxidation mechanism of sulp hur containing amino acids was proposed.
