| Pressure Induced Shifts in Spectral Properties of Pigment-Protein Complexes and Photosynthetic Organisms  | | | | Abstract
| Application o f elevated pressure (up to 1200 bars) results in a bathochrom ic shift o f the absorption bands o f photosynthetic pigments. The photosynthetic system s studied include: photosystem I particles, chloroplasts, acetone extracts o f chloroplasts, A U T particles and light harvesting particles o f Rh. sphaeroides, light harvesting particles o f R26. Sim ilar spectral changes are observed in all systems. The spectral shifts appear to be associated w ith pressure-induced changes in the local electric fields o f the pigm ents, rather than changes in the index o f refraction o f the solvent. | | | |
