increase in pH, but control solutions of NaCl and<br />

KCl showed no change of p(IP) between pH:9.8<br />

RW<br />

and pH:10.96. The p(IP) values of the reduced<br />

water of the electrolyte solutions decreased from<br />

14.058 to 13.474. However, there was almost no<br />

change in p(IP) between pH:9.8 and pH:10.96<br />

CS<br />

in the control solutions.<br />

Eq.(27) shows the entropy of p(IP) RW. We can<br />

estimate the increase in entropy by using Eq.(27).<br />

Table 1 shows the estimated entropy increase in<br />

the reduced water from the sample solutions. The<br />

reduced water with 2 mM NaCl solution showed<br />

the largest entropy increase(2.4 Kcalymol). Conversely,<br />

the reduced water of MgCl2<br />

showed the<br />

lowest entropy increase(1.1 Kcalymol).<br />

The effects of reduced water on oxidative DNA<br />

damage are presented in Figs. 11 and 12. In the<br />

present study, oxidative DNA damage is clearly<br />
