A quartz-flow-cell system for irradiation of large volumes of Escherichia coli cultures with ultraviolet light is described. With this system kilogram quantities of irradiated cells can be obtained for biochemical studies. Changes in respiration and in specific activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase, after an ultraviolet treatment that reduced viability of culture samples to 0.2%, were in good agreement with those for cultures irradiated (52J/m2) by a conventional small-scale method to produce the same reduction in viability.
描述了一种用于用紫外线照射大量大肠杆菌培养物的石英流动池系统。使用该系统可获得数千克经照射的细胞用于生化研究。在将培养样品的活力降低至0.2%的紫外线处理后,呼吸作用以及超氧化物歧化酶和过氧化氢酶的比活性变化,与通过传统小规模方法(52J/m²)照射培养物以产生相同活力降低的情况高度一致。
