Abstract

Repeated application of buckminsterfullerene (C60) toluene solution combined with ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation onto hairless mouse back skin resulted in enhancing formation of erythema as an acute disease but induced no carcinoma on the skin. This result is probably due to insolubility of C60 in the living cells to generate little singlet oxygen 1O2 by UVA radiation.
