Abstract
Irradiation of human (IMR-91), mouse (10T1/2) and Chinese hamster (V79) fibroblasts with monochromatic ultraviolet light (u.v.) in the far-, mid-, and near-u.v. regions resulted in cell-strain-specific changes in sensitivity as a function of the wavelength used. The data suggested cell-strain-specific action spectra for cell killing by ultraviolet light that did not correlate with the ability of examined cells to excise pyrimidine dimers.Keywords
