Vy. Petrov et al., A DIFFERENTIAL PHOTOMICROCALORIMETRIC METHOD FOR INVESTIGATING THE RATE OF ENERGY-STORAGE IN PLANTS, Thermochimica acta, 251, 1995, pp. 351-356
This paper describes the equipment and method for the direct measureme
nt of the quantity and rate of light-induced changes in plants. The ph
otomicrocalorimetric method can be used for the investigation of energ
etics in photosynthesis and other photobiological processes in higher
plants, algae and microorganisms. The rate of energy storage of Chlore
lla cells and a number of agricultural plants under optimal and extrem
e conditions have been determined.
