Abstract
Photoinduced electron transfer of DNA as well as DNA bases with 9-mesityl-10-methylacridinium ion results in formation of all types of DNA base radical cations, which have been detected as the transient absorption spectra measurements, leading to efficient DNA cleavage in the absence of O2.Keywords
