The photodynamic inactivation of nucleic acids with pyronin, methylene blue, thiopyronin and furocoumarines has been studied. The template efficiency of DNA in RNA-Polymerase reaction was found to be decreased after the treatment of DNA with these compounds. However, the magnitude of their inhibiting capacity varied from one compound to the other. Psoralen and thiopyronin were found to be the most active inhibitors followed by xanthotoxin and methylene blue respectively. At a lower temperature the inhibiting capacity of thiopyronin was considerably decreased but that of psoralen remained nearly unaffected. We have also tried to show evidence for a complimentary code in t-RNA through a specific destruction of guanine with thiopyronin.

Sections of rat eggs in various stages of fertilization and early cleavage were stained with buffered solutions of methylene blue or light green to show the distribution of basophilia and acidophilia respectively, or were treated by the Feulgen technique to show the distribution of desoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
