Abstract
In this study, dilute solution properties of polyadenylic acid (polyA) , G values for single strand break formation G(ssb), Arrhenius paramet ers (25-45 degrees C), the kinetics of strand break in the absence and presence of radical scavengers have been studied. OH radicals were pr oduced from gamma radiolysis of water, which is supposed to be the mai n primary radical causing single strand break formation.
