Effects of tetracycline on growth and antioxidant system of Selenastrum capricornutum
In order to study the toxic effects of tetracycline on algae, Selenastrum capricornutum is selected as the test organism. The growing situation, chlorophyll a contents, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA) content and reactive ...

Chlorophyll and Chlorophyll Catabolite Analysis by HPLC [PDF]
The most obvious event of leaf senescence is the loss of chlorophyll. Chlorophyll degradation proceeds in a well-characterized pathway that, although being common to higher plants, yields a species-specific set of chlorophyll catabolites, termed phyllobilins.

Conversion of Chlorophyll b to Chlorophyll a and the Assembly of Chlorophyll with Apoproteins by Isolated Chloroplasts [PDF]
Abstract The photosynthetic apparatus is reorganized during acclimation to various light environments. During adaptation of plants grown under a low-light to high-light environment, the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-protein complexes decompose concomitantly with an increase in the core complex of photosystem II.

Deriving sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence from airborne based spectrometer data [PDF]
Sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (Fs) is a promising parameter for remote measuring plant photosynthesis. It has been demonstrated that Fs at cell and leaf level is strongly related to photosynthesis.

Investigation of Chlorophyl-a Derived Compounds as Photosensitizer for Photodynamic Inactivation
Chlorophyll has unique physicochemical properties which makes them good as photosensitizer of Photodynamic Inactivation (PDI). The physicochemical properties of chlorophyll as photosensitizer can be optimized through several routes.

A Bayesian approach for remote sensing of chlorophyll-a and associated retrieval uncertainty in oligotrophic and mesotrophic lakes [PDF]
Satellite remote sensing of chlorophyll-a concentration (chla) in oligotrophic and mesotrophic lakes faces uncertainties from sources such as atmospheric correction, complex inherent optical property compositions, and imperfect algorithmic retrieval.

Extinction coefficient for red-shifted chlorophylls: Chlorophyll d and chlorophyll f
Both chlorophyll f and chlorophyll d are red-shifted chlorophylls in oxygenic photosynthetic organisms, which extend photon absorbance into the near infrared region. This expands the range of light that can be used to drive photosynthesis. Quantitative determination of chlorophylls is a crucial step in the investigation of chlorophyll-photosynthetic ...
