Abstract
Quaternary ammonium salts, besides having an inhibitory effect which w as studied by Kralova et al. (1992), exhibited at low concentrations a stimulating effect upon the oxygen evolution rate in spinach chloropl asts. The stimulation is caused by changes in arrangement of thylakoid membranes due to a detergent-like effect of the compounds.
