Various biosynthetic classes of phototoxic compounds have been isolated from over thirty plant families (5). Some plant families produce more than one type of phototoxin. Three different types of phototoxins have been isolated from the Apiaceae ( celery family), for example, and eight different types have been identified so far from the Rutaceae (citrus family). Among other families that contain phototoxins are the Asteraceae (sunflower family), Euphorbiaceae (spurge family), Fabaceae (pea family) and Moraceae (fig family) ( i).
