The susceptibility of oxidised DHE to photo-induced oxidation increases with decreasing irradiation wavelength. (A) Representative kinetics of oxygen consumption in the dark and during irradiation with narrow-band UV or blue light of indicated wavelengths in the suspension of liposomes made from oxidised (OxDHE) or freshly opened 16:0-22:6PC (DHE) in the presence of 0.1 mM 4-protio-3-carbamoyl-2,2,5,5-tetraperdeuteromethyl-3-pyrroline-1-yloxy (mHCTPO) used as a spin probe. (B) Irradiation wavelength-dependence of the initial rates of photo-induced oxygen uptake in the suspension of OxDHA and DHE liposomes normalised to the equal number of incident photons (the action spectra).
