With 37 authoritative chapters, this book reviews recent progress and current status of studies on the chemistry, metabolism and spectroscopy of chlorophylls, bacteriochlorophylls and their protein complexes. Also discussed is progress on the applications of the chlorophylls as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy of cancerous tumours, and as molecular probes in biochemistry, medicine, plant physiology, ecology and geochemistry. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book summarizes the chemical, physical, biological and medical aspects of chlorophyll (and bacteriochlorophyll) research and development, with a focus on the tremendous progress achieved over the past 15 years. Each section has an up-to-date introductory overview which is followed by a series of concise well-focused and fully-referenced chapters written by experts in (bio)chemistry, (bio)physics, photobiology and photomedicine. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bernhard Grimm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1402045158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781402045158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 603\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.31h x 7.88w x 1.14d","brand":"Bernhard Grimm","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":50593290551551,"sku":"9781402045158","price":329.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chlorophylls-and-bacteriochlorophylls-bernhard-grimm-9781402045158","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
