X-ray induced damage in DNA monitored by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy

Abstract: In this work, the chemical changes in calf thymus DNA samples were analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy ͑XPS͒. The DNA samples were irradiated for over 5 h and spectra were taken repeatedly every 30 min. In this approach the X-ray beam both damages and probes the samples. In most cases, XPS spectra have complex shapes due to contributions of C, N, and O atoms bonded at several different sites. We show that from a comparative analysis of the modification in XPS line shapes of the C 1s, O 1s, N 1s, and P… Show more

“…The signal that appeared at 712.2 eV corresponds to the ferric compounds, such as FeOOH and Fe 2 O 3 (i.e., Fe 3+ oxide), and the signal at 707.1 eV was attributed to the presence of Fe 0 (2p) (Figure 11d) [58]. It is worth mentioning that the sulfide peak usually appears at 162.3 eV [40], and the signal at 133.7 eV corresponds to the P-O group present in the inhibitor molecule [57].…”

“…The deconvoluted C 1s spectra (Figure 11b) showed two-peak profile at 285.3 eV and 286.5 eV, respectively. The peak at 285.3 eV was assigned to the C-C aliphatic bonds, while the presence of C=C, C=O, and C-N bonds were reflected by the peak at 286.5 eV [57]. The presence of O 1s peak at 530.3 eV, shown in Figure 12, is attributed to C-O and O 2− , and the peak appearing at 532.7 eV could be associated with the oxygen of adsorbed water [49].…”
