This EMSL project will increase our knowledge of the spatial characteristics of the free radical damage at the interface between the physical deposition of energy in DNA from gamma irradiation and…

Free Radical Processes in g- and Heavy Ion Irradiated DNA

Lead Institution
Oakland University
Principal Investigator
Michael Sevilla
Project type
Capability Research
An understanding of the radiation-induced free radical mechanisms in DNA is important to the elucidation of the ultimate effects of ionizing radiation on DNA (Becker and Sevilla, 1993). One largely…
