Infrared spectroscopy of phytochrome and model pigments [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Fourier-transform infrared difference spectra between the red-absorbing and far-red-absorbing forms of oat phytochrome have been measured in H2O and 2H2O. The difference spectra are compared with infrared spectra of model compounds, i.e. the (5Z,10Z,15Z)-

Hepatoprotective protein pigment complex phycocyanin from Spirulina maxima and its potential antimicrobial, oxidative stress-modulating effects

open access: yesThe Microbe
In the present study, the antibacterial activity and oxidative stress-modulating effects of phycocyanin extracted from Spirulina maxima were investigated. Phycocyanin was isolated from S. maxima biomass using cold maceration, followed by ammonium sulfate

Antioxidant activity and mechanism of action of phycocyanin in bulk sunflower oil and respective oil-in-water emulsion

open access: yesCurrent Research in Food Science
This study compared the inhibitory mechanism of phycocyanin in sunflower oil with its activity in a sunflower oil-in-water emulsion. Additionally, the impact of lecithin on the inhibitory mechanism of phycocyanin in sunflower oil was evaluated.

Regulating the Energy Flow in a Cyanobacterial Light Harvesting Antenna Complex

open access: yes, 2017
Photosynthetic organisms harvest light energy, utilizing the absorption and energy transfer properties of protein-bound chromophores. Controlling the harvesting efficiency is critical for the optimal function of the photosynthetic apparatus.

Application of complexes from phycocyanin and pectin in a model beverage system

open access: yesFuture Foods
The blue-appearing phycocyanin from the cyanobacteria Arthrospira platensis undergoes severe color losses during food production or storage. Thus, many studies have looked at stabilizing phycocyanin against processing conditions such as heat with ...
