An understanding of photosynthesis is fundamental for microalgal biotechnology. The process of photosynthesis can be expressed as a light-driven redox reaction in which carbon dioxide is converted to carbohydrates and oxygen is released as a side-product. This chapter describes the processes in detail from light capture to carbon fixation.

Carotenoids and Photosynthesis
2016Carotenoids are ubiquitous and essential pigments in photosynthesis. They absorb in the blue-green region of the solar spectrum and transfer the absorbed energy to (bacterio-)chlorophylls, and so expand the wavelength range of light that is able to drive photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis and respiration
2010Leaves capture sunlight using chlorophyll pigments to generate chemical energy that powers transformation of inorganic carbon dioxide and water into sugar during photosynthesis. Two chlorophyll-rich photosystems work in series to intercept and convert light energy into the chemical energy of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH (nicotinamide adenine ...

Photochemistry of Photosynthesis
1991Publisher Summary Photosynthesis is composed of many individual steps that work together with high overall efficiency. The process can be divided three stages: the photochemical steps, electron transfer to which is coupled ATP formation, and the biochemical reactions involving the incorporation of CO2 into carbohydrates.
