Preferred Label : spectroscopy, mossbauer;
MeSH definition : A spectroscopic technique which uses the Mossbauer effect (inelastic scattering of
gamma radiation resulting from interaction with heavy nuclei) to monitor the small
variations in the interaction between an atomic nucleus and its environment. Such
variations may be induced by changes in temperature, pressure, chemical state, molecular
conformation, molecular interaction, or physical site. It is particularly useful for
studies of structure-activity relationship in metalloproteins, mobility of heavy metals,
and the state of whole tissue and cell membranes.;
