Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to outline in the field of biological science the kinds of problems to which vibrational spectroscopy (infrared absorption and Raman scattering) can provide solutions. Emphasis is given here to the use of vibrational spectra in the study of molecular structures of biomembranes and interactions of biologically important materials. The main aspect will concern the changes observed in the lipid spectrum when host molecules are interacting: vitamin E, antibiotic (sodium lasalocid) and in the water molecules.
