Description
Study of photoinduced processes that lead to the production of lesions on the DNA. Determination of photostability and photoreactivity properties of the DNA/RNA components. Function of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, low-energy electrons and other endogenous/exogenous reactive agents in DNA/RNA damage. Damage mechanisms by photosensitisation (photodynamic therapy for the treatment of cancer).
