Raman spectroscopy of pigments and oxalates in situ within epilithic lichens: Acarospora from the Antarctic and Mediterranean.
2000-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Fourier Transform laser Raman spectroscopy was used to generate diagnostic spectra for pigments and biodegradative calcium oxalate in situ in two yellow-pigmented species of the lichen genus Acarospora from contrasting sites in the Antarctic and the Mediterranean. This non-intrusive technique was used to identify the photoprotective pigments rhizocarpic acid and β-carotene by their unique Raman spectral finge...
