Abstract :
Characterization of absorption lines of the degraded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in the range of 0.1 - 1 THz measured by terahertz pulsed and continuous spectroscopy. DNA intramolecular vibrations, vibrations of the hydrogen bonds between two strands of DNA and vibrations responsible for the changes in molecular conformation of DNA when dissolved in water through the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds were classified.
