45. In a recent publication a 5 Chl/2 Pheo preparation has been reported.9
46. The actual experimental lifetime found was 2-3 ps. The large range of 1-6 ps for this component was based on a very conservative estimate of the error limits.
47. Note that the fluorescence kinetics has generally a higher S/N ratio than transient absorption data, which may rationalize the larger number of lifetime components that we found in fluorescence.
48. (48) We have previously noted29 that Hastings et al. might have measured the spectra in the 545 nm range at a higher excitation intensity. However this effect would still not fully explain the discrepancy.
49. Our suggestion is based on a comparison of the kinetics of our own measurements at 545 nm at higher excitation intensity with those of Klug et al.26 and Hastings et al.23 We note, however, that the authors claim that the excitation intensity was the same at all detection wavelengths (personal communication, J. Durrant).
