Abstract: The effectiveness of doxorubicin, oligomycin and cholchicine on living cells was studied with the photoelectric method in this paper. The results indicated that the change of photoelectric current can reflect the effectiveness of drugs on living cells, and the inhibition effect of drugs on the photoelectric current of living cells was dependent on the drug concentration and drug-treating time. Based on these results, a model of “light-induced enzymatic-reaction acceleration” for the photoelectric behavior of mammalian cells had been proposed as well.

Key words: Mammalian cell, Photoelectric behavior, Photoelectric current
