Photonics of biopolymers discusses the processes of energy
transformation in photoexcited proteins, nucleic acids, membranes and
model systems. The author addresses, among other topics: Light
absorption, screening and reabsorption; photometric studies of protein;
energy transfer mechanics; fluorescent probes; photomodulation of
enzymes, and photoactiviation. Much of the information stems from the
author's own wide experience in the field.
