The belly skin of 4-month-old coho salmon fry was extracted with 0.5 M NH4OH, and the extract was analyzed by paper chromatography for UV-absorbing and UV-fluorescing substances. Six fluorescing and three absorbing substances were isolated and characterized by Rf values, UV-absorption spectra, and chemical reactions, and were identified with known compounds where possible. The three UV-absorbing substances were identified as guanine, hypoxanthine, and inosine monophosphate. Three of the UV-fluorescing substances were identified as ichthyopterin, pterin 6-carboxylic acid, and 7,8-dihydroxanthopterin. A fourth fluorescing substance appeared to be an artefact produced by the action of NH4OH on ichthyopterin. The remaining two fluorescing substances appeared to be unknown glycosides, presumably isomers, both containing glucose, xylose, and mannose.

A new thermo-optoacoustic analysis has been used to detect the photo chemical reactions in medicine ciprofloxacin, a synthetic chemotherapeutic antibiotic of the fluoroquinolone drug class. Certain derived optoacoustic parameters of pure medicine and that exposed to solar radiations have been determined as a function of temperature. Plots of these parameters versus temperature have been made. The nature of variation and the relative shift in the curves for the exposed samples compared with the un exposed ones have been used to study photo chemical reactions. The results have been explained in the light of existing theories and confirmed using UV absorption spectra of the samples.

Despite many studies, the mechanisms of nonradiative relaxation of uracil in the gas phase and in aqueous solution are still not fully resolved. Here we combine theoretical UV absorption spectroscopy...

Ultraviolet (UV) absorption spectra were recorded of chloramben (3-amino-2,5-dichlorobenzoic acid) and selected relatives in solutions of different pH's. From these spectra, the Broensted acid-base properties of chloramben were deduced. Interpretations of solution spectra were applied to UV absorption spectra of chloramben adsorbed onto Ca-montmorillonite at low water content. Infrared (IR) transmittance spectra were recorded of chloramben and selected derivatives in KBr pellets and band assignments were made. Interpretations of these spectra were also applied to IR spectra of chloramben adsorbed onto Ca-montmorillonite at low water content. Both UV and IR measurements indicated that protonation of the amino group occurs and that the carboxyl group of chloramben is strongly hydrogen-bonded to the hydration water of the interlayer cations.
