The formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from betel quid ingredients, namely areca nut, catechu and tobacco, was studied using a chemiluminescence (CL) technique. Aqueous extracts of areca nut and catechu were capable of generating superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide at pH greater than 9.5. The formation of O2- was enhanced by Fe2+, Fe3+ and Cu2+ but inhibited by MN2+. Tobacco extract failed to generate ROS under similar conditions. Saliva was found to inhibit both O2+ and H2O2 formation from betel quid ingredients. Upon incubation of DNA at alkaline pH with areca nut extract and Fe3+ or catechu, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine was formed as quantified by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)/electrochemical detection. The data suggest a possible role of reactive oxygen species in the etiology of oral cancer in betel quid chewers.
