✦ Synopsis
Debromination of 8-bromo-2'-deoxyguanosine was accomplished in high yield under neutral conditions in aqueous methanol by irradiating with visible light in the presence of methylene blue as a sensitizer and triethylamine as an electron donor. The method can be extended for the debromination of other bromoaromatic compounds.

The formation of DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs), induced by irradiation with visible light, was studied in methylene bluetreated (MB-treated) chromatin and HI-depleted chromatin. The effects of the MB concentration and radiation dose were studied using sodium dodecylsulphate-chloroform-isoamyl alcoh
