Abstract: | Methyl esters of hydroxycinnamic acids are photobiologically active. Cis(Z) and trans(E) p-methoxymethyl-cinnamate photosensitize Escherichia coli and Chinese hamster ovary cells. They also produce sister chromatid exchanges. Photosensitization is oxygen independent, and the cinnamates are not genetically active in the absence of light in the Ames Salmonella typhimurium test. |
