For the purposes of this paper, we define the following terms: "polyenes" refers to simple, unsubstituted polyenes such as octatetraene; "carotenoids" refers to naturally occurring, isoprenic polyenes such as lycopene; "oligomers" refers to the DEDPM oligomers; and "polymer" refers to the high molecular weight DEDPM polymer described in the Experimental Section.
