The chemical reactions and pathways involving dioxygen (O2), or any of the reactive oxygen species, e.g. superoxide anions (O2-), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and hydroxyl radicals (-OH). Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving hydrogen peroxide. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a potentially harmful byproduct of aerobic cellular respiration which can cause damage to DNA. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Any process that decreases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving hydrogen peroxide. Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving hydrogen peroxide. The chemical reactions and pathways involving hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), a potentially harmful byproduct of aerobic cellular respiration which can cause damage to DNA. The chemical reactions and pathways by which individual cells transform chemical substances.
