UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D010103 Oxygen Isotopes Stable oxygen atoms that have the same atomic number as the element oxygen, but differ in atomic weight. O-17 and 18 are stable oxygen isotopes. Oxygen Isotope,Isotope, Oxygen,Isotopes, Oxygen
D010798 Phycocyanin The metal-free blue phycobilin pigment in a conjugated chromoprotein of blue-green algae. It functions as light-absorbing substance together with chlorophylls. C-Phycocyanin,C Phycocyanin
D010860 Pigments, Biological Any normal or abnormal coloring matter in PLANTS; ANIMALS or micro-organisms. Biological Pigments
D011758 Pyrroles Azoles of one NITROGEN and two double bonds that have aromatic chemical properties. Pyrrole
D006418 Heme The color-furnishing portion of hemoglobin. It is found free in tissues and as the prosthetic group in many hemeproteins. Ferroprotoporphyrin,Protoheme,Haem,Heme b,Protoheme IX
D000461 Rhodophyta Red algae whose color results from predominace of the red pigment (PHYCOERYTHRIN). However, if this pigment is destroyed, the algae can appear purple, brown, green, or yellow. Two important substances found in the cell walls of red algae are AGAR and CARRAGEENAN. Some rhodophyta are notable SEAWEED (macroalgae). Algae, Red,Red Algae
