Bioanalytical applications of Mössbauer spectroscopy

Abstract

Abstract Data on the applications of Mössbauer spectroscopy in the transmission (mainly on 57 Fe nuclei) and emission (on 57 Co nuclei) variants for analytical studies at the molecular level of metal-containing components in a wide range of biological objects (from biocomplexes and biomacromolecules to supramolecular structures, cells, tissues and organisms) and of objects that are participants or products of biological processes, published in the last 15 years are discussed and systematized. The prospects of the technique in its biological applications, including the developing fields (emission variant, use of synchrotron radiation), are formulated. The bibliography includes 248 references.
