Fluorescent lighting screened with 26–0z. clear glass has been found not to interfere with the artificial production of rickets in chicks for assay of vitamin D 3 . There are indications that fluorescent lighting at intensities over 100 ft.‐candles may have a detrimental effect on chick growth in some conditions.
