Reactions in the Radiosensitizer Misonidazole Induced by Low-Energy (0–10 eV) Electrons
Misonidazole (MISO) was considered as radiosensitizer for the treatment of hypoxic tumors. A prerequisite for entering a hypoxic cell is reduction of the drug, which may occur in the early physical-chemical stage of radiation damage. Here we study electron attachment to MISO and find that it very ef...
