Abstract
Perspective display techniques are applied to chemical and biochemical data sets. These represent spatially distributed gradients of reactive compounds that participate in pattern-formation processes due to reaction-diffusion or reaction-convection coupling. The patterns form in thin solution layers and are observed as chemical waves in the Belousov-Zhabotinskii reaction, as convection-induced stationary structures during oscillating glycolysis in yeast cytoplasm, and as the diffusive spreading of enzyme-catalyzed metabolic turnover in a substrate layer. The digital data are measured with a two-dimensional spectrophotometer based on a computerized video equipment with high spatial, temporal and intensity resolution. By application of three-dimensional procedures detailed structural properties of chemical and biochemical model systems will be presented yielding localization of reaction and transport events.
