A device has been set up to determine quantitatively the weak fluorescence intensities of pigment molecules. It consists of a laser spectrofluorimeter. The excitation beam can be produced with either a He/Cd laser (441.6 nm) or a He/Ne laser (632.8 nm). This system allows us to detect the fluorescence of dilute chlorophyll a or b solutions of the order of 10−12 mol/l. This sensitivity also permits the study of the emission spectra from chlorophyll in monomolecular or solid states, and since a polarization rotator has been incorporated into our apparatus, one may presume some possible orientation of the molecules.

Abstract The spectral data for a novel fungal metabolite, moniliformin (potassium salt of 1-hydroxycyclobut- 1-ene-3,4-dione), are reported. The corrected ambient temperature fluorescence excitation and emission spectra are given and the quantum efficiency is calculated to be 5.32 × 10舓3. The uncorrected low temperature phosphorescence emission spectrum and lifetime are also reported. Other physical data are given to support spectral evidence that the molecule exists as a dimer in aqueous solutions.
