[Mechanisms of increasing the intensity of ultraviolet fluorescence of irradiated cells].
As shown on the in vitro irradiated Ehrlich ascites tumor cells the increase in the intensity of ultraviolet fluorescence (UVF) of the exposed cells occurs only in such incubation conditions when an increase in the tryptophan content of irradiated cells becomes possible. The increase in the UVF intensity and in the tryptophan content are quantitatively identical. It is concluded that the increase in the content of the fluorescing substance, tryptophan, in the irradiated cells is the cause of the increase in the UVF intensity.
