Absorption Changes in Bacterial Chromatophores [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 1964 The magnitude and kinetics of photo-induced absorption changes in bacterial chromatophores (R. rubrum, R. spheroides and Chromatium) have been studied as a function of potential, established by added redox couples. No photochanges can be observed above +0.55 v or below -0.15 v.

Melanocortin systems on pigment dispersion in fish chromatophores [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2012 Alpha-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) is responsible for pigment dispersion in the chromatophores of fish and other tetrapods such as amphibians and reptiles.

The architecture of Rhodobacter sphaeroides chromatophores [PDF]
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2014 The chromatophores of Rhodobacter (Rb.) sphaeroides represent a minimal bio-energetic system, which efficiently converts light energy into usable chemical energy. Despite extensive studies, several issues pertaining to the morphology and molecular architecture of this elemental energy conversion system remain controversial or unknown.

Body coloration and mechanisms of colour production in Archelosauria: the case of deirocheline turtles [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Animal body coloration is a complex trait resulting from the interplay of multiple mechanisms. While many studies address the functions of animal coloration, the mechanisms of colour production still remain unknown in most taxa.
