Comments on “was hydrogen peroxide present before the arrival of oxygenic photosynthesis? The important role of iron(II) in the archean ocean”
Recent research has hypothesized that hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) may have emerged from abiotic geochemical processes during the Archean eon (4.0–2.5 Ga), stimulating the evolution of an enzymatic antioxidant system in early life. This eventually led to the evolution of cyanobacteria, and in turn, the...
