Abstract
Instrumentation and procedures are described for the detection of the photoreversible pigment in intact tissue with a recording single-beam spectrophotometer and the assay based on the measurement of the optical density difference between 2 fixed wavelengths using a double-beam, bichromatic spectrophotometer. A system for separation of the pigment using usual methods of protein chemistry is described.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
