Gamma irradiation of adenine and guanine adsorbed into hectorite and attapulgite

Gamma irradiation of adenine and guanine adsorbed into hectorite and attapulgite

This study focuses on the radiolysis (up to 36 kGy) of guanine and adenine (nitrogenous bases) adsorbed in hectorite and attapulgite to highlight the potential role of clays as protective agents against ionizing radiation in prebiotic processes. In this framework, the study investigated the nitrogen...
