Manifestations of radiation damage over a wide range of time scales: UV–Vis absorption spectra of irradiated ethylene glycol [data collected at the ESRF using the arrangement described by Southworth-Davies & Garman (2007)] showing a rapid increase in absorption owing to eaq- upon X-ray irradiation; disulphide bond breakage in low-dose composite data sets of DsbA (R. L. Owen, unpublished data); decay of diffracting power of holoferritin crystals as a function of X-ray dose (Owen et al., 2006). |
