## Abstract Using a series of exogenous fluorescent molecules as potential energy acceptors, the hypothesis on the activity of the upper electronβexcited states in bioluminescence was tested. The results in bacterial and firefly bioluminescent enzyme systems were compared. Similar activity to the e

Raman excitation proΓles (REPs) of several totally symmetric vibrations of 2,2ΒΊ-dipyridylamine (DPA) were measured and analysed. Possible molecular structures and other interesting properties of the molecule in the excited electronic states are discussed. Normal-mode characteristics are also describ
