title: [Survivability of some black yeast-like fungal species under UV-irradiation].
abstract: The survival of 4 species (14 strains) of black-pigmented yeast-like fungi, isolated from radioactive polluted ecotopes, after UV-irradiation has been studied. Their survival was different in the limits of 3 orders from 0.7 to 0.0001% and was described by the exponential composite exponential and composite sigmoid types of dose curves. Essential heterogeneity for the level and character of survival after UV-irradiation of conidia Aureobasidium pullulans, Hormonema dematioides, Exophiala cf. jeanselmei and Exophiala sp. has been presented.
