Abstract
EDTA treatment of E. coli B enhanced cell sensitivity to the lethal effect of the photodynamic action of 3,4-benzpyrene. The alteration of the shape of the survival curve suggests that such photodynamic action may be modified by membrane barriers to the drug.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
