Abstract
Radiation of cellular components, such as enzyme systems DNA and RNA, has been used to study the mechanism of laser reaction in tissue. Such studies not only help to determine how the photons react with living cells, but also whether such radiation is mutagenic or carcinogenic in comparison with other modalities of radiation such as ultraviolet light and x-ray.
