Abstract excerpt

The survival rate and reversions to tryptophan-independence of Escherichia coli after XeCl laser irradiation (lambda = 308 nm) within the dose range from 10(3) to 10(5) J/m2 have been studied to show that LD37 is 10(4) J/m2, the survival rate at a maximum dose of 10(5)J/m2 is 1 per cent, and the...
