Abstract
Induction of DNA damage is one of the major consequences of exposure to solar UV radiation in living organisms. UV-induced DNA photoproducts are mostly pyrimidine dimers, including cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, pyrimidine (6-4) pyrimidone photoproducts and Dewar valence isomers. In the last few decades, a large number of methods have been developed for the quantification of these pyrimidine dimers. The present review emphasizes the contribution of chromatographic techniques to our better understanding of the basic DNA photochemistry and the better description of damage in cells.
