    • The semireduced, semioxidized, and OH(.)-adduct radicals of bilirubin (BR) and biliverdin (BV) have been characterized using pulse radiolysis techniques. Laser flash photolysis (265-nm) of these pigments led to monophotonic photoionization with quantum yields of 0.08 for BR and 0.03 for BV. No evidence for triplet formation or for photoisomerization was found after 265-nm laser excitation. However, 347-nm excitation of BR in chloroform led to simultaneous photoisomerization and radical… CONTINUE READING
