abstract：:The capacity of some linear and angular furocoumarins to induce DNA-protein cross-links by UVA (320-400 nm) irradiation has been evaluated in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Two linear furocoumarins, psoralen and 8-methoxypsoralen appeared to be capable of inducing DNA-protein cross-links to a noticeable extent. 4'-Methy...
