Experiments were carried out on the diploid yeast Saccharomyces vini suspensions of the cells which were irradiated with ultraviolet. Semilogarithmic plots of the inactivation as a function of the radiation dose were the characteristic dose-effect curves for yeast. The typical curves of photoreactivation and dark recovery are presented and compared as survival curves, which show no essential differences. An equation is presented which describes the curves. A comparative analysis of the relation of the types of inactivation in ultraviolet irradiation and the postirradiation recovery indicated that photoreactivatio may be described by plots of the effective dose. In the case of dark recovery, this model is formally applied but does not reflect the nature of the process. (TTT)
