Abstract
Depth profiles of double layer biological samples, obtained by photoac oustic spectroscopy, have been studied using the phase-resolved method . The application of the method was demonstrated by insulating out the spectra of the cuticle and the pigment layers of a lettuce leaf. Usin g this method, we were able to monitor the phase shift between the cut icle and the pigment layers as a function of the time elapsed after he rbicide spraying. The temporal changes occurring in lettuce leaves und er the action of dehydration were also investigated.
