Abstract: | Absorption spectra of chlorophyll a in phosphatidylcholine liposomesat different temperatures were analyzed by a curve fitting method.The absorption spectrum was found to be composed of one majorband with a peak at 670671 nm and minor bands with peaksat 650652, 662663 and 684686 nm. Upon coolingbelow the phase transition temperature of the lipid, the componentabsorbing at 670671 nm increased significantly at theexpense of the component absorbing at 662663 nm. No changein the extents of other bands was observed.
