Description

  • Content Description: Experiments were designed to solve problems in dose-response relationships in uv-induced carcinogenesis. Two strains of hairless mice were exposed to 300 to 400 nm, 320 to 400 nm, and 365 nm wavelength emissions following exposure to 8-methoxy-psoralen; various fractionation regimes were used. Results showed that the number of psoralen-DNA crosslinks per cell increased linearly with dose. The importance of wavelength in the initiation and the expression of tumors is emphasized. (HLW)
