Values represent ICL/10 kb. Data are from at least 3 blots each of 3 independent biologic experiments. Standard errors for each group were in the range of 0 to 0.08 ICL/fragment.

Values represent percentage of ICL removal.

Values represent percentage of inhibition of ICL removal at 4 and 8 hours, determined as 1 = 1 - (percentage of ICL removal + fludarabine) / (percentage of ICL removal - fludarabine).
