Absorption spectra, triplet state and fluorescence properties of solutions of chlorophylls b and a and pheophytins b and a in lecithin have been studied over a range of concentration from 10-4 to 5 × 10-2 mol l-1. Energy transfer has been investigated for the pairs chlorophyll b to a, pheophytins b to a, and is adequately described by the Forster i...

... Despite the wide-ranging use of fluorophores their behaviour is not fully understood, particularly the process of "quenching" that can occur when multiple fluorophores interact together (4). Concentration-dependent self-quenching is a phenomenon observed in experiments where the fluorescence intensity measured per-fluorophore decreases non-linearly as the concentration of fluorophores increases (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10). In biophysical measurements, unexpected quenching can be a problem if it disrupts fluorescence assays (11)(12)(13). ...
