Effect of low temperature on the absorption spectra of hæmoproteins; with observations on the absorption spectrum of oxygen

ABSTRACT INTEREST in the sharpening, and in certain cases the displacement and splitting, of absorption bands at very low temperatures has hitherto been limited to the field of molecular

physics, in so far as these changes have offered useful information on the molecular structure of a number of substances1,2. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a
