Dielectric spectroscopy of Tobacco Mosaic Virus

Dielectric spectroscopy of Tobacco Mosaic Virus
Dielectric spectroscopy of Tobacco Mosaic Virus
The dielectric properties of the Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) have been measured using time domain dielectric spectroscopy (TDDS) in the temperature range from 1 to 40 jC. A single dielectric dispersion is observed in the MHz range. The activation energy of the process is found to be in the range 1–2 kcal/mol. The experimental data could not be completely accounted for by current theoretical models, but evidence indicates that the dielectric loss arises from polarisation of charge on and around the virus.

Abstract

The dielectric properties of the Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) have been measured using time domain dielectric spectroscopy (TDDS) in the temperature range from 1 to 40 jC. A single dielectric dispersion is observed in the MHz range. The activation energy of the process is found to be in the range 1–2 kcal/mol. The experimental data could not be completely accounted for by current theoretical models, but evidence indicates that the dielectric loss arises from polarisation of charge on and around the virus.
