The Effect on the External Parathyroid Glands of the Exposure of Rabbits to Ultra-violet Light
Because many instances have been observed of the effects of light on metabolic processes, and because in the higher animals tbe glands of internal secretion act in part as chemical regulators of metabolism, we are undertaking certain studies on the effects on the endocrine tissues of exposure of the skin to ultra-violet light. In preparation for these studies it seemed desirable to make prelimi...
متن کاملThe Abiotic Action of Ultra-violet Light
Typhoid bacilli are about one two-hundredth as sensitive to ultraviolet light of wave-lengths 2100 to 2800 Angström units as is the photographic plate. This sensitivity then falls off, decreasing rapidly to almost zero sensitivity at about 2970, the beginning of the sun's spectrum.
متن کاملAn Ultra-violet Light Monitor for Spear3
A synchrotron light monitor is an essential tool for operating a storage ring. For SPEAR3, the upgrade of the SPEAR storage ring, the light monitor was designed not only for monitoring the beam presence but also to measure beam parameters. To minimize diffraction effects, UV light around 200 nm is used to image the electron source rather than visible light. At 200 nm, the rms diffraction spot i...
متن کاملUltra-violet Light and Vaccine Virus
Rabbit skin treated for a few minutes with ultra-violet light and then inoculated at once with vaccine virus is less susceptible to the action of the virus than is untreated skin. If 24, 48, or 72 hours elapse between the time of irradiation and inoculation, the treated skin appears to be more susceptible than is untreated skin. Skin repeatedly exposed to ultra-violet light is less susceptible ...
متن کاملA Study of the Bactericidal Action of Ultra Violet Light
1. Wide differences in the intensity of incident ultra violet energy are not accurately compensated by corresponding changes in the exposure time, so that the Bunsen-Roscoe reciprocity law does not hold, strictly, especially for bactericidal action on young, metabolically and genetically active bacteria. In the present series of experiments, however, the energies used at various wave lengths di...
