Photosynthetic Pigments with Potential for a Photosynthetic Antenna: A DFT Analysis

International Journal of Photoenergy, 2019
Geometrical and electronic properties of the main photosynthetic pigments in higher plants such as chlorophylls and xanthophylls were studied to find potential candidates that were able to participate in an eventual zeolite-dye artificial antenna.

Potential of Seaweed to Improve the Quality and Shelf Life of Fish and Fishery Products

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Growing global demand for safe fish preservation has increased interest in natural alternatives. Seaweed‐derived bioactive compounds possess antioxidant and antimicrobial properties that enhance fish quality, safety, and shelf life. These sustainable preservatives may reduce spoilage and synthetic preservative use, though further research ...

Modified reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 [PDF]

, 1990
Monomeric bacteriochlorophylls BA and BB in photosynthetic reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides R26 were exchanged with (132-hydroxy-) bacteriochlorophylls containing a 3-vinyl- or 3-(α-hydroxyethyl)-substituent instead of the 3-acetyl group ...

Synergistic effects of maize defoliation and common bean relay cropping in Western Ethiopia

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Maize defoliation is practiced to enhance crop management by improving light penetration, nutrient allocation, controlling weeds, and providing supplementary feeds for livestock. A rapid decline in soil fertility and low crop yields associated with maize‐based monocropping has prompted the recent introduction of maize common bean ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...
