Owing to its continuous energy distribution and strong output, synchrotron radiation is a powerful tool to study spectroscopic nature and photochemical reaction of biomolecules. Here we report recent achievement in our trial to examine the chemical evolution of amino acids induced by ultraviolet light and soft X-ray in universe.
