Onset time is the time post-addition of H₂O₂ or GOx that PI fluorescence intensity increased by 5 standard deviations above baseline (defined as intensity at 2 h). The mean slope (M in the equation Mx+b) is for the line describing the increasing intensity during the linear phase of the rapid rise in fluorescence intensity as illustrated in Figure 1B (in green). The peak intensity (in arbitrary units [AU]) is the highest fluorescence intensity achieved during 20 h. Asterisks indicate where the outcome differs significantly (paired t test, p<0.02) from the outcome obtained for the same parameter in the next lower concentration of H₂O₂ or GOx.
