The DNA dose–response curve was determined by quantification of the autoradiogram shown in . () The extent of ·OH mediated cleavage of DNA (black) and RNA (blue) determined at 44 mM HO with a 5 ms reaction time as a function of Fe(II)-EDTA concentration. The solid lines are fits of the data to a simple saturation function. Open and closed symbols are replicate experiments in both (A) and (B)
