Immobilization Techniques for Photosystem II

The main methods of immobilization employed to stabilize the life time of photosynthetic material are studied. Various parameters and properties concerning the immobilization procedures are evaluated method, biological material, techniques to measure the photosynthetic activity, storage and operational stabilities. A comparison between two methods of immobilization (chemical and physical) to measure the effect of herbicides which inhibited photosynthesis is discussed. The practical implication of photosystem II is emphasized.
