The role of reactive oxygen species in causing DNA damage through interaction of chromium(III) and hydrogen peroxide was examined using plasmid relaxation assay and EPR spectroscopy. Marked DNA strand breakage was induced by CrCl 3 plus H 2 O 2 in a phosphate buffer at pH 6-8.9; whereas, only slight DNA strand breakage was observed during similar treatment at pH less than...
