susceptible to shearing Explanation: Hi Allan, A bit of a tough one, but I think I have found some good sites which explain what is going on. The Scher- part is short for Scherung, Scherkraft, which is shearing. I found the following (simple) warning in a site: Hochmolekular => Scherung! New Protocols for Isolating High- Molecular-Weight Genomic DNA - ... of the DNA —the point in purification methodology where DNA is most ***susceptible to shearing forces***. Fully hydrated high-molecular-weight DNA is ready to use ... www.stratagene.com/vol12_2/p66-67.htm - ... High molecular weight genomic DNA can be prepared using several ... membranes and proteins (4).

Cleavage and scission being, of course, synonyms of shearing. I hope that helps. Does it seem to fit in with the broader context of your translation?
