Thermal and Photochemical Effects on the Fluorescence Properties of Type I Calf Skin Collagen Solutions at Physiological pH
Mammalian collagens exhibit weak intrinsic UV fluorescence that depends on the age and previous history of the sample. Post-translational modifications result in additional fluorescent products (e.g. DOPA, dityrosine, and advanced glycation end products (AGE)). UV radiation can cause longer wavelength fluorescent oxidative bands. These alterations can assess the extent of photolysis. We describ...
متن کاملStudies on the Anomalous Viscosity and Flow-birefringence of Protein Solutions
UNLABELLED 1. An extensive investigation has been made of protein particle shape using the methods of flow-birefringence and anomalous viscosity measurement in the coaxial cell. 2. As a result of investigations on a number of proteins, it is concluded that they may be divided into four groups. Group A consists of those which show flow-anomaly both in the bulk phase and in the surface film. Thes...
متن کاملFlow birefringence property of desmin filaments
We have investigated the flow birefringence property and assembly process of desmin, a muscle specific intermediate protein. Solution of non-polar desmin filaments showed birefringence when aligned in the sheared flow. The amount of birefringence of desmin filaments was considerably lower when compared with that of F-actin solution. Assembly of desmin from soluble state was followed by the bire...
متن کاملOptimal Control of Laser Induced Transient Birefringence in Liquid Crystals
Optimal control theory is applied to design a laser pulse to produce an anisotropic change of the refraction index in the vicinity of the isotropic-nematic phase transition in liquid crystals. The laser induced birefringence originates from the orientational anisotropy induced by the laser eld that is enhanced signiicantly due to the excluded volume eeect. The shape of the optimal pulse is anal...
متن کاملInduced transient birefringence of a resonantly pumped molecular gas
We present a theoretical study of the induced transient birefringence of a low density homogeneous molecular gas in a resonant pump–probe experiment. The molecular coherent state induced by the resonant pump field is described by second-order perturbation theory. The induced birefringence can be detected by a delayed probe pulse propagating through the molecular medium after illumination by the...
