Zusammenfassung

Es wird ein kurzer Überblick über infrarotspektroskopische Untersuchungen von biologischen Systemen gegeben. Die wesentlichen Studien der vier Klassen von Biomolekülen, nämlich Proteine, Lipide, Kohlenhydrate und Nucleinsäuren, werden mit exemplarischen Ergebnissen aus der neueren Literatur vorgestellt. Das hohe Potential der Infrarot-Spektroskopie für biologische Untersuchungen wird demonstriert.

Summary

A brief overview of infrared studies of biological systems is presented. Relevant studies of the four classes of biomolecules, the proteins, the lipids, the carbohydrates and the nucleic acids are exemplified with results from the recent literature. The great potential of infrared spectrometry for biological studies is demonstrated.
