Abstract:
:We have used Escherichia coli B/r to test the proposal that hydroxyl radicals (.OH) are major contributors to lethal damage when bacteria in equilibrium with air or 100% nitrogen are exposed to ionizing radiation. In addition, we have tested the hypothesis that oxygen sensitizes bacterial cells to radiation by reacting at radical sites previously formed by reactions of .OH. Our results with B/r indicate that the involvement of OH radicals in damage may have been overestimated. We believe that simple .OH removal provides B/r with only a relatively small amount of protection in N2 and air. Although some .OH scavengers can have large protective effects in air, evidence supports the tentative conclusion that these effects are not based on simple .OH removal. If this conclusion is correct, then radiation sensitization by oxygen--at least of this bacterial strain--would be unrelated to reactions of .OH.
