The study of the interaction persistent organic pollutants with biosubstrates helps to unravel pathways for toxicity, however, few mechanistic data are present in literature these systems. We analyzed binding paraquat (PQ) and diquat (DQ) herbicides natural calf thymus DNA a G-quadruplex by spectrophotometric titrations, ethidium bromide exchange tests, viscometry, melting experiments. bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein was studied spectrofluorimetrically at different temperatures. retention...
