This report describes modifications in the techniques used for both the induction and elicitation of photoallergic contact dermatitis (PACD) in the guinea pig. These changes have improved the reliability of this animal as the model of choice for screening chemicals

In this study, with the aim of developing a cell-based in vitro photosensitization assay, we examined whether changes of CD86 and CD54 expression on cells of a human monocytic cell line, THP-1, could be used to assess the photosensitizing potential

Guest induced shape change of the cucurbit[8]uril cavity is likely rate limiting in the supramolecular photocatalytic cycle for CB8 mediated photodimerization of 6-methylcoumarin.
Cell biology and toxicology, 16(6), 391-400 (2001-03-20)
The reconstituted human epidermis model SkinEthic was used to evaluate the phototoxicity of topically applied chemicals. For comparison with published data, we first tested a library of 13 nonphototoxic (NPT) and phototoxic (PT) compounds, applied onto SkinEthic reconstituted human epidermal

The infrared absorption spectra of the carbonyl stretching vibrations of 6-methylcoumarin (6MC) have been investigated in CCl4/ROH mixtures (CCl4/C2H5OH, CCl4/n-C3H7OH, CCl4/i-C3H7OH, and CCl4/t-C5H11OH). Two types of carbonyl stretching vibration bands for 6MC are found with the change of the mole
