Effect of solvent-water mixtures on the prototropic equilibria of fluorescein and on the spectral properties of the monoanion

abstract：:Previous studies have shown that natural killer (NK) cell activity was suppressed in volunteer subjects exposed to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) from solarium lamps. The present studies were carried out to determine the spectrum of UVR responsible for suppression of NK activity and to develop in vitro methods to analyze...
