Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are thought to be primary in the pathogenesis of cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, as direct evidence of ROS has not yet been demonstrated in cerebral vasospasm, we sought to substantiate superoxide anion (.O(2)(-)) generation in the subarachnoid space after SAH using a modification of Karnovsky's manganese/diaminobenzidine (Mn(2+)/DAB) technique.
