Title | Photosensibilisierung isolierter Mesophyllzellen von Calystegia sepium L. Photosensibilization o f Isolated Mesophyll Cells of Calystegia sepium L ![]() | ||
Abstract | Cell division of isolated mesophyll cells o f Calystegia sepium can be made sensitive to long-wave UV (LUV) by treatment with 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MP). The inhibition o f cell division de pends on 8-MP concentration and the length o f light exposure. Only the simultaneous presence of 8-MP and LUV gives effective photosensibilization. Cells treated with 8-MP in the dark can be made non-sensitive to LUV by washing out the furocoumarin prior to irradiation. The furocou marins may offer a means o f cell selection. | ||
