Reference is made to studies by Biemont et al. (1982) and Kwiatkowski et al. (1982), in which 'modern' radiative lifetimes obtained by laser excitation were used to refine and update solar abundance values. The same procedure is extended here to Ru I. Radiative lifetimes are measured by laser excitation for 12 levels of Ru I. The results are combined with branching ratios taken from Corliss and Bozman (1962) in order to provide an accurate set of oscillator strengths for transitions of solar interest. From studying nine Ru I lines, the photospheric abundance is found to be 1.84 + or - 0.07.
