Abstract: | The estimated light emission spectrum was determined for a singlet oxygen (1O2)-producing system, NaOCl + H2O2, alone and in the presence of tryptophan and bovine serum albumin. Tryptophan and bovine serum albumin caused a decrease in the red emission of 1O2 and an increase in the amount of shorter wavelength light. This effect was due to chemiluminescence rather than fluorescence. Arachidonic acid caused a similar spectral shift, while guanosine demonstrated a late chemiluminescent reaction of predominantly short wavelength light in the presence of 1O2. |
