The first dedicated new work since 1991, this book reviews recent
progress and current studies in the chemistry, metabolism and
spectroscopy of chlorophylls, bacteriochlorophylls and their
protein complexes. Also discussed is progress on the applications
of chlorophylls as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy of
cancerous tumours, and as molecular probes in biochemistry,
medicine, plant physiology, ecology and geochemistry. Each
section offers an introductory overview followed by concise,
focused and fully-referenced chapters written by experts.
