Abstract:
Bergamottin (5-geranoxypsoralen) is a main component of bergamot and grapefruit oil. In order to investigate the photophysical and photochemical behaviour of bergamottin, absorption and fluorescence properties, production of singlet oxygen and superoxide radical anions and further cross-linking of DNA were studied. Strong photochemical reactions were not observed.
