  • Title: [Action of ultraviolet laser radiation on extracellular and phagocytic Mycobacteria tuberculosis in vitro].
    Author: Faĭzullin DR, Eremeev VV, Kuz'min GP, Bagirov MA, Dobkin VG.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 2002; (12):56-8. PubMed ID: 12611340.
    Abstract:
    Ultraviolet laser radiation (a wavelength of 248 nm) was examined in vitro for its bacteriostatic and bactericidal actions on M. tuberculosis H37Rv. Sterilization was achieved when a dose of 10 m/J/cm2 was applied. This indicates that this type of radiation suppresses both the formation of colonies upon exposure of free Mycobacteria in the suspension and the incorporation of 3H-uracil by the mycobacteria phagocytized with peritoneal macrophages.
