Energetics of functional molecules for the light-induced charge separation in photosynthetic bacteria

为了阐明光合细菌中光诱导电荷分离的能量学，其中辅因子的氧化还原性质是模糊的，因为不充分的测量技术，氧化还原电位的辅因子已确定在本工作中使用的光学透明的薄层电极池光谱电化学。此外，通过研究各种植物中辅因子的氧化还原电位，我们讨论了光合反应中能量学的必然性和可接受性。

To elucidate the energetics for the light-induced charge separation in photosynthetic bacteria, in which redox properties of cofactors were obscure because of insufficient measurement technique, redox potentials of the cofactors have been determined in the present work by spectroelectrochemistry using an optically-transparent thin-layer electrode cell. Further, by investigating the cofactors' redox potentials in various species, we have discussed the inevitability and admissibility of the energetics in the photosynthetic reactions.
