Abstract
Single stranded DNA damage at photodynamic treatment with Radachlorin photosensitizer was investigated. Chemical trap method was used to evaluate generation of singlet oxygen in water solution. Interaction of singlet oxygen with ssDNA resulted into decrease of the replication activity of ssDNA. DNA stopped replicating during PCR at irradiation doses greater than 15 J/cm2 and concentration of photosensitizer [PS] = 3.8 μM. The dependence of replication activity of ssDNA on generated singlet oxygen concentration was identified.
