Scientific Opinion on the re‐evaluation of chlorophylls (E 140(i)) as food additives
Chlorophylls (E 140(i)) were previously evaluated by Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) in 1969 and the Scientific Committee on Food (SCF) in 1975 and 1983 and, in relation to special medical purposes, for young children in 1996 ...

Effects of Light Intensity on Development and Chlorophyll Content in the Arabidopsis Mutant Plants with Defects in Photosynthesis [PDF]
The developmental stages and adaptability to different light intensity (150 µmol*m-2*s-1 and 100 µmol*m-2*s-1) in Arabidopsis mutant lines with defects of photosynthetic apparatus were analyzed. Plant development in the mutant lines depended on the light

THE INFLUENCE OF STRONG AND WEAK ACID UPON AGGREGATION AND PHEOPHYTINIZATION OF CHLOROPHYLL A AND B
Chlorophyll is green pigment that can be found in plant chloroplast. Higher plants usually have two kinds of chlorophylls, chlorophyll a and b. These green pigments are easily degraded by temperature, light intensity, oxygen, acid, and water.

Productivity of triticale depending on the content of photosynthesizing pigments at anthesis
Photosynthetic pigments play an important role in the accumulation of dry matter and they can be the markers of stress. Change in the ratio of chlorophyll A and B indicates physiological changes and adaptation of the organism to changes of environmental ...
