Abstract
A high voltage electric pulse was applied to DNA cleavage. The DNA cleavage reaction was dependent on the voltage amplitude, pulse number and pulse width. Radical scavengers and ESR data indicated the possibility that active species such as OH radical were strongly related to DNA cleavage.
