FT-IR Photoacoustic Spectroscopy

Time-resolved methods in biophysics. 10. Time-resolved FT-IR difference spectroscopy and the application to membrane proteins.

The introduction of time-resolved Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to biochemistry opened the possibility of monitoring the catalytic mechanism of proteins along their reaction pathways. The infrared approach is very fruitful, particularly in the application to membrane proteins where NMR and X-ray crystallography are challenged by the size and protein hydrophobicity, as well as ...

Time-resolved flow-flash FT-IR difference spectroscopy: the kinetics of CO photodissociation from myoglobin revisited

Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) difference spectroscopy has been proven to be a significant tool in biospectroscopy. In particular, the step-scan technique monitors structural and electronic changes at time resolutions down to a few nanoseconds retaining the multiplex advantage of FT-IR. For the elucidation of the functional mechanisms of proteins, this technique is currently limited to repe...

Step-Scan FT-IR Time-Resolved Spectroscopy in the Solid State

The use of KBr pellets as an interference-free matrix for performing time-resolved infrared (TR-IR) measurements on samples in their crystalline state is described and demonstrated. Step-scan Fourier transform infrared time-resolved spectroscopy (S2FT-IR TRS) is used to measure the infrared (IR) absorption difference ( D A, excited state minus ground state) spectra of the long-lived chargetrans...

Cyclohexene photo-oxidation over vanadia catalyst analyzed by time resolved ATR-FT-IR spectroscopy.

Vanadia was incorporated in the 3-D mesoporous material TUD-1 with a loading of 2% w/w vanadia. The performance in the selective photo-oxidation of liquid cyclohexene was investigated using ATR-FT-IR spectroscopy. Under continuous illumination at 458 nm a significant amount of product, i.e. cyclohexenone, was identified. This demonstrates for the first time that hydroxylated vanadia centers in ...
