Abstract
⺠Oxidative damage of nucleosides involves guanosine. ⺠Radical quenching reduces oxidation of guanosine. ⺠Dietary carotenoids also convert oxidised guanosine to guanosine. ⺠Carotenoids give additional protection against free radical-induced damage of nucleic acid bases. ⺠Benefits for dietary carotenoids against oxidation damage.
