[Effect of local UV microirradiation on the nuclear apparatus and cytoplasm of the infusorian Paramecium caudatum].
The work is the first attempt to study nuclear dualism of ciliates with ultraviolet microbeam (UV-beam), which was not applied earlier for these purposes. The special advantage of the UV-beam is that it allow to inactivate selectively of the particular elements of nuclear apparatus of living ciliates is to observe consequences of operation on distant descendants of irradiated cell. On Paramecium caudatum the ways of UV-beam have been devised specifically. The original rotocompression chamber was employed for immobilization of cell in space of irradiation. The effective UV-doses were selected, the relative resistance of cytoplasm, macro-, micronucleus (Mi), and symbiotic bacteria of Mi -- omega particles -- was detected. The "pure" and infected cells were irradiated, in some different variants. The effect of UV-beam depends on dose and consists in a reduction the effectiveness of cell cloning, the loss of omega-particles from Mi, the appearance of the cells with 2--3 Mi, and, possibly, of amicronucleate cells. The injuries due to UV-beam are restored by photoreactivation of visible light.
