FTIR spectroscopy of fullerols in plant organs. (a) FTIR data for fullerols, C0-C5 stem samples. C1-C5 samples exhibit clear fullerol signatures. All the spectra were offset for clarity. (b) A scaled and expanded view of C3 sample showing the fullerol peaks ~1580-1640 cm-1 region. (c) FTIR data for fullerols, C0-C5 fruit samples. C1-C5 samples exhibit clear fullerol signatures. All the spectra were offset for clarity. Sample C5 shows very distinct features similar to fullerols due to preliminary incubation of seeds in highest fullerol concentration.
