In the process of this screening, both types of electrons actually clump together to form a composite object, or quasiparticle, which is very heavy. From Wordnik.com. [RedOrbit News - Technology] Reference
For example, in both systems, when an electron at the lowest possible energy level is excited (by a photon or another particle), the resulting interaction between the electron and the hole left behind cannot be described as a quasiparticle (as it can in ordinary metals), because the electron excitation decays so quickly.

I suppose one could propose that quantum-capable quasiparticle waves exist within tubulins, but why in the world would one bother?. From Wordnik.com. [Quantum Hyperion] Reference
In each experimental run, the elevated quasiparticle densities caused the wavelike entities to overlap and form condensates, the investigators say. From Wordnik.com. [Quantum Study Yields Unusual Results | Impact Lab] Reference
I suspect that if molecular non-classical data transfers and quasiparticle condensates exist, such components could also be configured to build qubits. From Wordnik.com. [Quantum Hyperion] Reference
In the condensate, the bosonic quasiparticle pairs are coupled to each other and can be described by a macroscopic wave function with a well defined phase. From Wordnik.com. [Additional background material on the Nobel Prize in Physics 1996] Reference
In short: To complete the assertion that room temperature systems cannot include quantum behaviors, a rigorous analysis of the quasiparticle issue is required. From Wordnik.com. [Quantum Hyperion] Reference
Also, a full proof of the irrelevance of quasiparticle-mediated quantum effects in room temperature organic systems would also require a proof that quasiparticles cannot be used to construct qubits, or at least that any qubits constructed in such a fashion cannot then be linked back to the classical components of the system.

A quasiparticle can also be purely effect, like plasmons, which are quantum packets of excitation in the electrons in a metal. From Wordnik.com. ["MAIN" via Steve in Google Reader] Reference
Fundamentally, a plasmon is a quasiparticle, a quantum of a plasma oscillation, as much as a photon is a quantization of light. From Wordnik.com. [physicsworld.com: all content] Reference
A quasiparticle is not a sort-of particle, as the name implies, but usually represents a combination of a bulk effect and a material. From Wordnik.com. ["MAIN" via Steve in Google Reader] Reference
For example, an electron is only a particle, but an electron that blocks the attraction between another electron and a proton could act as a quasiparticle. From Wordnik.com. ["MAIN" via Steve in Google Reader] Reference
The idea of a quasiparticle of large area and volume was at the time of this paper new to physics, though it does not appear to be excluded a priori even now. From Wordnik.com. [The Libertarian Alliance: BLOG] Reference

Once cooled, the team used the qubit to probe the nature of the mechanical oscillator, and found that the number of phonons a vibrational quasiparticle in the relevant mechanical mode was very small. From Wordnik.com. [Ars Technica] Reference
In physics jargon, a "plasmon" is the quasiparticle resulting from the quantization of plasma oscillation; it's essentially the collective oscillations of the free electron gas at a metallic surface, often at optical frequencies.

"A central problem in quantum physics is understanding the varieties of exotic quantum states of many-electron systems: their long-range quantum entanglement and the nature of their quasiparticle excitations," Sachdev told PhysOrg. com. From Wordnik.com. [PhysOrg.com - latest science and technology news stories] Reference
Because the behavior of the quasiparticle is different from that of its individual components, researchers should be able to use this new knowledge to make better predictions of the atomic and molecular states present in graphene, and keep watch for the appearance of plasmarons in similar materials. From Wordnik.com. ["MAIN" via Steve in Google Reader] Reference
"We show that most previous proposals can be unified under a single theory in which the central quasiparticle is a Majorana particle which carries only the Fermi statistics of the electron, but neither its spin nor its charge.
