Phototherapy in Gunn rats. II. Further calculations on the effectivity of different irradiances (Ebili)

A new mathematical analysis is done with data from animal tests published 1977 in this journal. For the phototherapy-induced serum bilirubin decrease, reliable concentration-time functions can be ascertained for any starting level and for any type of fluorescent tube. No saturation point was reached although highly effective irradiances were used.
