ARTICLE
Equal amounts (40 mg) of proteins were denatured in O-solution, boiled for 10 minutes, and then
separated on 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel. Proteins were then transferred on a nitrocellulose membrane and detected by primary antibodies, respectively, rabbit polyclonal antihuman/mouse b2-adrenergic receptor (1:100, predicted band size 46 kDa; Abcam) and mouse monoclonal antihuman b-actin (1:1000; Abcam).

Solution containing oxygen
During redox signaling, H2O2 oxidizes the thiolate anion to sulfenic form (Cys-SOH) causing allosteric changes within the protein that alter its function https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4055301/
When a solution of a protein is boiled, the protein frequently becomes insoluble—i.e., it is denatured—and remains insoluble even when the solution is cooled. - https://www.britannica.com/science/protein/Protein-denaturat...
Protein solutions usually contain buffer and salt as well as protein and water molecules. The important point is that the third component causes the increase in the solution viscosity by the exclusion volume effect. - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6182935/

Deductions, comparing: all relationated with solution containing oxigene: think alittle and yo'll, not at the first sight

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are byproducts of aerobic metabolism. ROS include the superoxide anion (O2−), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and: think a little and you'll arrive to solutioon containing oxigen, there is no direct information -https://www.ncbi.n

organic compounds solution / a brand name
Protein Denaturation Methods:
Use of organic compounds, such as ethyl alcohol:
These compounds are capable of engaging in intermolecular hydrogen bonding with protein molecules, disrupting intramolecular hydrogen bonding within the protein.

Since the "O" in O-solution is written in capital letter. It could also be the brand name of a kind of solution.

The asker has more context. He / She will determine which one is the best.

Discussion
Proteins are denatured by treatment with alkaline or acid, oxidizing or reducing agents, and certain organic solvents. Interesting among denaturing agents are those that affect the secondary and tertiary structure without affecting the primary structure.
