Breaking the DNA by soft X-rays in the water window reveals the scavenging and temporal behaviour of ·OH radicals

Abstract A laser-plasma source emitting photons with energies in the water window spectral range has been used to reveal the radiation chemical yields of single-strand breaks in plasmid DNA as a function of ·OH radical scavenger concentration. Direct and indirect effects were investigated separately...
