The student is currently a graduate student at São Paulo University, major in chemistry and works as a PhD student under orientation of Dr. Prof. Maurício da Silva Baptista. The student works with the detection, characterization and quantitation of DNA and GSH adducts formed by the exposure of these molecules to oxidative stress inducers. The student has also experience in cell-culture, high performance liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

We have investigated the reactions of beta-carotene and two of its oxidation products, retinal and beta-apo-8'-carotenal, with 2'-deoxyguanosine to evaluate their DNA damaging potential. A known mutagenic adduct, 1,N2-etheno-2'-deoxyguanosine, was isolated and characterized on the basis of its spectroscopic features. After treatment of calf thymus DNA with beta-carotene or beta-carotene o…
