independent duplicate measurements; other samples were measured in singlicate;

c

above the limit of detection (~1 adduct per 109 bases by UPLC-ESI-MS/MS3);

n.a. = not analyzed; n.d. = not detected, below the limit of detection of ~1 adduct per 108 bases by 32P-postlabeling; FR= freshly frozen tissue; FFPE = formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue.
