Modelling the free radical chemical reactivity of biological systems is an important research area. When studying free-radical-based chemical mechanisms, biomimetic chemistry and the design of established biomimetic models come into play to perform experiments in a controlled environment that is suitably designed to be in strict connection with cellular conditions. This Special Issue gives the reader a wide overview of biomimetic radical chemistry, where molecular mechanisms have been defined and molecular libraries of products are developed to also be used as traces for the discovery of some relevant biological processes. Several subjects are presented, with 12 articles and 6 reviews written by specialists in the fields of DNA, proteins, lipids, biotechnological applications, and bioinspired synthesis, having "free radicals" as a common denominator. 606 $aBiology 615 0$aBiology. 676 $a574 702 $aChatgilialoglu$b Chryssostomos 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910674010803321 996 $aBiomimetic Radical Chemistry and Applications$92945124 997 $aUNINA
