Abstract
The major goal of this study is to create a venue for further work on the effect of pulsed magnetic fields on plant metabolism. It deals with metabolite synthesis in the aforementioned conditions in microplants of Pyrus communis L. So far, there have been glimpses into the governing factors of plant biochemistry in vivo, and low-frequency pulsed magnestatic fields have been shown to induce additional electric currents in plant tissues, thus perturbing the value of cell membrane potential and causing the biosynthesis of new metabolites. In this study, sixty-seven metabolites synthesized in microplants within 3-72 h after treatment were identified and annotated. In total, thirty-one metabolites were produced. Magnetic-pulse treatment caused an 8.75-fold increase in the concentration of chlorogenic acid (RT = 8.33 ± 0.0197 min) in tissues and the perturbation of phenolic composition. Aucubin, which has antiviral and antistress biological activity, was identified as well. This study sheds light on the effect of magnetic fields on the biochemistry of low-molecular-weight metabolites of pear plants in vitro, thus providing in-depth metabolite analysis under optimized synthetic conditions. This study utilized high-resolution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, metabolomics methods, stochastic dynamics mass spectrometry, quantum chemistry, and chemometrics, respectively. Stochastic dynamics uses the relationships between measurands and molecular structures of silylated carbohydrates, showing virtually identical mass spectra and comparable chemometrics parameters.

Abstract
We report the hyper-Raman (HR) spectrum of trifluoroethanol, excited with 532 nm light, in an aqueous solution at basic pH. The HR spectrum exhibits a distinct spectral pattern that diverges entirely from the infrared and Raman spectra of trifluoroethanol. This observed unique HR signal was attributed to the products of photoinduced radical reactions in the aqueous solution. This result exemplifies the exceptional capabilities of HR spectroscopy based on resonance conditions.

Abstract
Many species use Fe+2 and H2O2 to oxidize a wide variety of compounds to simpler molecules. Both pathogen killing by leukocytes (neutrophils and lymphocytes) and degradation of cellulose by brown rot fungi rely on excretion of Fe+2 ions and H2O2, the Fenton reagent. To elucidate the mechanism of Fenton oxidation of carbohydrates, β1,3 glucan (laminaran), a major fungal wall polysaccharide, was oxidized using a molar ratio of monomer/Fe+2/H2O2 of 10:1:1 (primarily). We labeled the reaction products and profiled them as fluorescent-labeled molecules in polyacrylamide gels and as hydrophobic-tagged molecules using reverse phase liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS). Sub-stoichiometric concentrations of Fe+2 and H2O2 fragmented laminaran into smaller molecules containing carbonyl and carboxylic acid groups visible on fluorescent-labeled carbohydrate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. HPLC/MS analysis of glucan fragments showed masses consistent with six classes of molecules: aldoses, dialdoses, uronic acids, hexosuloses, aldonic acids, and hexulosonic acids. The results were consistent with published mechanisms where hydrogen radical (H•) abstraction from a C-H or O-H bond begins a cascade of reactions leading to 1) C-C bond cleavage to produce aldose/dialdose pairs; 2) oxo-group (O = ) addition to produce uronic and aldonic acids; 3) hydroxyl group (HO-) addition to produce gluconolactone and hexosuloses; and 4) hexulosonic acids. Most products resulted from regioselective H• abstractions characteristic of oxidations by ferryl-oxo ion [(FeO)+2] or perferryl-oxo ion [(FeO)+3] in close contact with specific positions in the glycan. Therefore, oxidations initiated by regioselectively-bound Fe ions were the predominant initiators of polysaccharide degradations.

Abstract
Methyl 2-azido-2-deoxy-α-d-lyxofuranoside (1a) and methyl 2-azido-2-deoxy-β-d-ribofuranoside (2) were prepared from d-xylose or d-arabinose, respectively. Employing ESR and DFT/B3LYP/6-31G* calculations, we investigated (i) aminyl radical (RNH·) formation and (ii) reaction pathways of RNH·. Prehydrated electron attachment to 1a and 2 at 77 K produced transient azide anion radical (RN3·-) which reacts via rapid N2 loss at 77 K, forming nitrene anion radical (RN·-). Rapid protonation of RN·- at 77 K formed RNH· and -OH. 15N-labeled-1a confirmed this mechanism. Investigations employing in-house synthesized site-specifically deuterated derivatives of 1a (e.g., CH3 (1b), C4 (1c), and C5 (1d)) established that (a) a facile intramolecular H atom transfer from C5 to RNH· generated C5· and RNH2. C5· formation had a small deuterium kinetic isotope effect suggesting that this reaction does not occur via direct H atom abstraction. (b) Subsequently, C5· underwent a facile unimolecular conversion to ring-opened C4·. Identification of ring-opened C4· intermediate confirms the mechanism of C5'· mediated unaltered base release associated with DNA-strand break. However, for 2, ESR studies established thermally activated intermolecular H atom abstraction by RNH· from the methyl group at C1. Thus, sugar ring configuration strongly influences the site and pathway of RNH· mediated reactions in pentofuranoses.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Inflammatory diseases (such as arthritis) of the extracellular matrix (ECM) are of considerable socioeconomic significance. There is clear evidence that reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitrogen species released by, for instance, neutrophils contribute to the degradation of the ECM. Here we will focus on the ROS-induced degradation of the glycosaminoglycans, one important component of the ECM. RECENT ADVANCES The recently developed "anti-TNF-α" therapy is primarily directed against neutrophilic granulocytes that are powerful sources of ROS. Therefore, a more detailed look into the mechanisms of the reactions of these ROS is reasonable. CRITICAL ISSUES Since both enzymes and ROS contribute to the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases, it is very difficult to estimate the contributions of the individual species in a complex biological environment. This particularly applies as many products are not stable but only transient products that decompose in a time-dependent manner. Thus, the development of suitable analytical methods as well as the establishment of useful biomarkers is a challenging aspect. FUTURE DIRECTIONS If the mechanisms of ECM destruction are understood in more detail, then the development of suitable drugs to treat inflammatory diseases will be hopefully much more successful.

Abstract
Radiation-induced DNA strand breakage results from the reactions of radicals formed at the sugar moiety of DNA. In order to elucidate the mechanism of this reaction investigations were first performed on low molecular weight model systems. Results from studies on deoxygenated aqueous solutions of ethylene glycol, 2-deoxy-d-ribose and other carbohydrates and, more relevantly, of d-ribose-5-phosphate have shown that substituents can be eliminated from the β-position of the radical site either proton and base-assisted (as in the case of the OH substituent), or spontaneously (as in the case of the phosphate substituent). In DNA the C(4') radical undergoes strand breakage via this type of reaction. In the presence of oxygen the carbon-centred radicals are rapidly converted into the corresponding peroxyl radicals. Again, low molecular weights models have been investigated to elucidate the key reactions. A typical reaction of DNA peroxyl radicals is the fragmentation of the C(4')-C(S') bond, a reaction not observed in the absence of oxygen. Although OH radicals may be the important direct precursors of the sugar radicals of DNA, results obtained with poly(U) indicate that base radicals may well be of even greater importance. The base radicals, formed by addition of the water radicals (H and OH) to the bases would in their turn attack the sugar moiety to produce sugar radicals which then give rise to strand breakage and base release. For a better understanding of strand break formation it is therefore necessary to investigate in more detail the reactions of the base radicals. For a start, the radiolysis of uracil in oxygenated solutions has been reinvestigated, and it has been shown that the major peroxyl radical in this system undergoes base-catalysed elimination of [Formula: see text], a reaction that involves the proton at N(l). In the nucleic acids the pyrimidines are bound at N(l) to the sugar moiety and this type of reaction can no longer occur. Therefore, with respect to the nucleic acids, pyrimidines are good models only in acid solutions where the [Formula: see text] elimination reaction is too slow to compete with the bimolecular reactions of the peroxyl radicals. Moreover, the long lifetime of the radical sites on the nucleic acid strand may allow reactions to occur which are kinetically of first order, and which cannot be studied in model systems at ordinary dose rates. It is therefore suggested to extend model system studies to low dose rates and to oligonucleo-tides. Such studies might eventually reveal the key reactions in radical-induced DNA degradation.

Abstract
Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Fourier transform Raman (FT-Raman) methods were used for rapid characterization and classification of selected irradiated starch samples. Biochemical changes due to irradiation were detected using the two vibrational spectroscopic techniques, and canonical variate analysis (CVA) was applied to the spectral data for discriminating starch samples based on the extent of irradiation. The O-H (3000-3600 cm(-1)) stretch, C-H (2800-3000 cm(-1)) stretch, the skeletal mode vibration of the glycosidic linkage (900-950 cm(-1)) in both Raman and infrared spectra, and the infrared band of water adsorbed in the amorphous parts of starches (1550-1750 cm(-1)) were employed in classification analysis of irradiated starches. Spectral data related to water adsorbed in the noncrystalline regions of starches provided a better classification of irradiated starches with 5 partial least-squares (PLS) factors in the multivariate model.

Abstract
Photolytically produced H.-atoms in 6 mol dm-3 H2SO4/H2O glasses trapped at 77 K react upon annealing to 130 K with dissolved carbohydrates to form carbon-located free radicals by abstraction of carbon-bound protons. Analysis of electron spin resonance (e.s.r.) spectra at various annealing stages from alpha- and beta-D-glucose together with 6,6-d2-D-glucose, 6-deoxy-D-glucose, 2-deoxy-D-glucose, glucose-1-phosphate, D-xylose, D-allose and D-mannose indicates radical formation at all possible carbon sites with a strong preference for C1 and a somewhat enhanced contribution of C4 over the statistical expectation. The corresponding component spectra are analysed either by spectra isolation or simulation and their parameters are given. Intramolecular radical transformation at temperatures of 140-160 K is explained by acid-catalysed H2O-elimination. The findings are discussed in relation to the radiation-chemistry of aqueous glucose solutions. We thus show that the system of photolyzed Fe2+ in acidic glasses at low temperatures containing 10 mmol dm-3 carbohydrate is suitable for studying H(D.)-reactions by means of e.s.r. spectroscopy. Unlike previously used glasses containing carbohydrates, contributions of oxidation and reduction by direct effects or mixtures of direct and indirect effects and phase-effects due to incomplete glass formation are avoided.

Abstract
gamma-Radiolysis (dose-rate: 0 X 89 Gy/s) or electron (e)-radiolysis (dose-rate: 5 X 10(7) Gy/s) of unbuffered aqueous solutions of alpha, alpha-trehalose (concentration: 60 mg/ml, radiation dose: 20 kGy) at 0 degree C yielded glucose (Ggamma = 1 X 7; Ge = 0 X 63) and 5-deoxyxylohexodialdose (Ggamma = 0 X 21; Ge = 0 X 05). Buffering at pH-values of 5 X 0 or 5 X 5 and irradiation caused increased formation of these monomeric products, particularly of the deoxy-compound. On addition of increasing amounts of bovine serum albumin or ovalbumin (10-30 mg/ml) and irradiation the yields of products were markedly reduced. The decrease in glucose formation was less pronounced when sperm whale myoglobin was present during gamma- or electron-irradiation. The G-values of 5-deoxyxylohexodialdose, however, were increased by 45 per cent (gamma-irradiation) and 70 per cent (electron-irradiation) at approximately 10 mg/ml of admixed myoglobin. Further increase in myoglobin concentration led to a gradual decrease in the yields of the deoxy-product. The observed effects are explained by scavenging of water radicals and by interactions of the added substrates with sugar radicals. Emulsified lipids (palmitic acid methylester or trilinoleic glycerol) did not affect the radiation-induced formation of products from trehalose.

Abstract
Free radicals in gamma-irradiated polycrystalline nucleic acid constituents and their 5-halogenated derivatives have been studied by e.s.r. and spin-trapping. After gamma-irradiation at room temperature, the polycrystalline samples were dissolved in aqueous solutions of t-nitrosobutane (tNB) in the absence or presence of oxygen. For many of the nucleic acid constituents, two types of radicals, -C(5)RH-C(6)H- and -C(5)R-C(6)H2-, formed by H-addition to the double bond [-C(5)R=C(6)H-] of the base, were observed, where R is -CH3 or -H. In addition, radicals formed on the sugar moiety were found for some nucleosides. When oxygen was present in the tNB solution, the relative stability of trapped radicals was changed, and thus the presence of more than one radical species could be established. For halogenated bases, the radical produced by H-abstraction from N(1) was observed, and an additional radical species formed by H-addition to the C(6) position was found for 5-fluorouracil. For halogenated nucleosides, the same spectrum was observed in all compounds except the 5-fluoroderivatives, and was assigned to the radicals produced on the sugar moiety. For 5-fluorodeoxyuridine and 5-fluorouridine, the radical formed by H-addition to the C(6) position of the base was observed. In general, the present results are in good agreement with those of previous single crystal studies, but in the case of halogenated compounds other than the 5-fluoroderivatives, it was not possible to spin-trap the alpha-halo radicals which were the most prominent radicals formed from gamma-irradiation of single crystals at room temperature.

Abstract
In order to obtain information concerning the mechanism of radio- and photosensitization due to 5-halogen substituted nucleic acid constituents, the free radicals produced in iodo-, bromo-, chloro- and fluoro-derivatives of uracil, uridine and deoxyuridine by reaction with hydrated electrons and with hydroxyl radicals and by direct U.V. photolysis have been studied by e.s.r. and spin-trapping. t-Nitrosobutane was used as the spin-trap. From 5-halogenated bases (except 5-fluorouracil) U.V. photolysis and reactions with hydrated electrons produced the uracilyl radical which was subsequently spin-trapped. When hydroxyl radical reactions were studied, the free radical at the N(1) position of the base was identified. From 5-fluorouracil U.V. photolysis generated the alpha-halo radical at the C(5) position of the base. For 5-halogenated ribonucleosides and deoxyribonucleosides, free radicals located on the sugar moiety were observed for reactions with hydrated electrons, hydroxyl radicals and for U.V. photolysis. The implications of these results for understanding the mechanism of radio- and photosensitization by 5-halogenated nucleic acids are discussed.

Abstract
The reaction of OH radicals and H atoms with ribose-5-phosphate (10(-2) M) in deoxygenated aqueous solution at room temperature (dose-rate 2-1 X 10(17) eV/ml-min, dose 5 X 10(18)-15 X 10(18) eV/ml) leads to the following dephosphorylation products (G-values): ribo-pentodialdose 1 (0-2), 2-hydroxy-4-oxoglutaraldehyde 2 (0-06), 5-deoxy-erythro-pentos-4-ulose 3 (0-1) and 3-oxoglutaraldehyde 4 (0-06). In addition, some minor phosphate free products (total G=0-09) are formed. G(inorganic phosphate) =1-3 and G(H2O2)=0-3. On the addition of 10(-3) M (Fe(III) ions, G (1) and G (3) increase to 0-6 and 0-4 respectively. In the presence of 10(-3) M Fe(II), G(1) and G(3) change to 0-4 and 0-8, respectively. The other dephosphorylation products are suppressed by the iron ions. G(1) also increases on the addition of increasing amounts of H2O2. Each product can be assigned a precursor radical formed by hydrogen abstraction from C-5, C-4 or C-3 of the ribose-5-phosphate molecule. Products 1 and 2 are formed by oxydative dephosphorylation of an alpha-phospho radical with preceeding H2O elimination for product 2. Elimination of H3PO4 from a beta-phospho radical leads to product 3; product 4 is formed by elimination of two molecules of H2O from its precursor radical and hydrolytic cleavage of an enol phosphate bond. Deuterium-labelling experiments and the effects of the iron ions and of H2O2 support the mechanisms proposed. The importance of the dephosphorylation mechanisms for the formation of strand breaks in DNA is discussed with special reference to the effects of the radiosensitizers.
