THE fourth Pedler Lecture of the Chemical Society was delivered by Prof. Hans Fischer at the Royal Institution on February 22, his subject being the constitution of chlorophyll A. Prof. Fischer ...

The chemical structure of chlorophyll looks a bit like protoheme. That's the red part of our hemoglobin, the part of red blood cells that carries oxygen in our blood.

Inspired by this natural structure, scientists have explored ways to synthetically assemble chlorophyll-based structures for applications in optoelectronics and renewable energy.

Researchers may have found a new form of chlorophyll, the pigment that plants, algae and cyanobacteria use to obtain energy from light through photosynthesis.Preliminary findings published August ...

Chlorophyllin, derived from chlorophyll is semi-synthetic and water-soluble. It is commonly used as an additive to medicines or food colorings. It is also used to treat wounds. Health Benefits ...

Chlorophyll is a natural pigment that occurs in many green vegetables. ... et al. (2024). The structure, functions and potential medicinal effects of chlorophylls derived from microalgae. https: ...

Another method for helping chlorophyll remain green is to replace the precariously situated magnesium ion with other multivalent cations that are more difficult for hydrogen to displace.

The structure of chlorophyll is similar to that of hemoglobin, the protein in your blood that carries oxygen to your tissues. So, it's sometimes also called “green blood. ...

Chlorophyll water is having a moment and it looks like the trend isn't going to slow down anytime soon. But before you hop on the green water bandwagon, here's what the experts want you to know.

We analyzed the structure of a newly discovered photochemical complex, ... Structural basis for the adaptation and function of chlorophyll f in photosystem I. Nature Communications, 2020; 11 (1) ...
