Application of time-resolved diffuse reflectance techniques in studies of reaction intermediates in suspensions of Bacillus subtilis.
Short lived reaction intermediates such as triplet states and free radicals can be detected in vivo using laser photolysis techniques with time-resolved diffuse reflectance detection. This novel approach is illustrated for bacterial suspensions of Bacillus subtilis.
