The use of steady state fluorescence spectroscopy in the detection and monitoring of potential photochemotherapeutic agents is examined. Problems associated with both in vitro and in vivo fluorescence measurements are investigated, and typical data are presented. Recent results on the use of fluores

β¦ Synopsis
Minimal erythema dose of ultraviolet light correlated significantly with the UV-sensitivity of fibroblast cells from 5 patients with xeroderma pigmentosum, 13 patients with keratinocytic neoplasms of the skin, and 21 control subjects, but not with that of cells from 6 patients with photosensitive dermatitis. In unscheduled DNA synthesis after UV irradiation, the number of grains per nucleus was much less in keratinocytes than in fibroblasts, but the relative dose-response relationship was similar. This indicates that keratinocytes can also be used in vitro UV-sensitivity studies.
