Ultraviolet irradiation of Vibrio cholerae seems to immediately interfere with the ability of the cells to form deoxyribonucleic acid. This effect, though reversible to a greater or lesser extent depending upon the dose, is followed by lysis and the breakdown of the cellular nucleic acids in the later stages. Growth in the irradiated cultures also results in abnormally long cells. Addition of cysteine to the cells prior to irradiation markedly reduces the effect of ultraviolet irradiation, its protecting action increasing with its concentration. Addition of cysteine after ultraviolet treatment, however, is ineffective whether the irradiation is carried out in the cold or at room temperature. (auth)
