The spectrophotometer includes a light bulb‚ a reflector‚ and a detector. When a sample is in place and the chamber lid is closed‚ light from the light bulb passes through it. The detector measures the amount of light

of Plant Pigments Paul Ibarbia‚ Gene Paolo Jasmin‚ Gianpaolo Jimenez and Lorenzo Labicane* Department of Biology‚ University of Santo Tomas‚ Manila‚ Philippines Abstract Column chromatography of plant pigments is the separation of plant pigments extracted from Capsicum frutescens (siling labuyo). No slurry is prepared of the eluent; eluent with the stationary phase is set and then carefully poured into the column. The eluent are the solvents which are responsible for the pigments to be divided

trunk and starve off the leaves. As those leaves began to starve‚ they stop producing the pigment chlorophyll which gives the leaves their green color. The leaves began to show yellow and red as the chlorophyll breaks down. With no pigment being produced‚ all the leaves will turn color over time. She tells us that there is a pigment called Anthocyanin‚ which causes the leaves to turn red. This pigment varies from year to year depending on the temperature and sunlight. She informs that us

Background Theory Photosynthesis: Plants require water from the soil‚ sunlight and carbon dioxide found in the atmosphere for growth and development. In the process of photosynthesis‚ carbon dioxide and water – in the presence of chlorophyll and light energy – are converted into sugar and oxygen‚ which is given off as a by-product. Generally‚ as sunlight increases in intensity‚ the rate of photosynthesis also increases [1]. This means greater food production within the plant. Many garden vegetables

Cortex of the hair is located between the medulla and the hair cuticle. It is the thickest part of the hair. It contains most of the hair pigment‚ giving it its color. This is often in finding out what color of hair the suspect or criminal had. The final part of the hair is the outermost part‚ known as the cuticle. It is a hard shingle like cover that is the first line of defense against any damage to the hair. It does not provide the pigment of the hair. It protects the other two layers of the hair. Hair can

Indicator Indicators are chemical compounds that can be added to a solution to determine whether it is acidicor alkaline. The indicator will change colour depending on whether an acid or an alkali is added. The colour in red cabbage (it is a pigment called an anthocyanin) makes a very good indicator. Acids and alkalis Acids have a sour taste‚ like vinegar (which contains ethanoic acid) and lemons (which contain citric acid). Alkalis are substances that react with acids and neutralise them. Soap

There are two different types of gallstone‚ cholesterol stones and pigment stones. Cholesterol stones are made up of cholesterol and are a yellow-green color while the pigment stones are a darker in color and made up of bilirubin. The pigment stones are what are caused by lead exposure and the amount of exposure to lead to create these pigment stone differ from person to person. However‚ the increase in bilirubin is the result in the increase of hemolysis
