Summary

From the studies of the circular dichroism and absorption spectra of acridine orange-amylopectin sulfate complex, we have deduced the following interesting explanation: If AO is situated in an environment which contains centers of asymmetry carbon atoms, it becomes optically active by induction.

Zusammenfassung

Aus Untersuchungen des Zirkulardichroismus und der Adsorptionspektren des Acridin-Orange-Amylopectin-Sulfat-Komplex folgt eine interessante Deutung. Wenn AO in asymmetrischer Umgebung gelagert wird, entsteht rege Aktivität.
