The result of learning is the knowledge of classification of compounds of biological origin by physicochemical properties; basic fundamental problems of interaction of light in the optical range with biological objects at the molecular level (absorption, luminescence, and Raman scattering); features of electronic processes and spectral manifestations of photophysical and photochemical processes in the biological objects; main applied problems of biophotonics.

Full-time form

Know the basic laws of physics, formulated in the course of general physics and the basics of quantum mechanics. Have basic knowledge of special courses on photonics of organic and inorganic media. Be able to apply previous knowledge of the courses in mathematical analysis, and mathematical physics.

Electronic - vibrational processes and optical spectra of biological molecules: nucleotides, amino acids, biopolymers (DNA, RNA, proteins) enzymes, and other biomolecules are considered. Possible photophysical and photochemical processes occurring in biological objects and features of the spectral manifestations of these processes are described. Some applied aspects of biophotonics are considered: biosensors with the optical response (auto luminescent biosensors and biosensors based on molecular probes), application of biophotonics in medicine (fluorescent diagnostics, photodynamic therapy, virus spectroscopy), molecular pharmacology.

Lectures

The results of students' learning activities are evaluated on a 100-point scale. Forms of current control: assessment of homework, written and oral answers to independent tasks. The student can receive a maximum of 40 points for homework, independent assignments, and oral answers. The final semester control is conducted in the form of an exam (60 points). The exam ticket includes 2 theoretical questions (20 points each) and a task (20 points).
