Chromophore-environment interaction of visual pigments in model system. 1971

M D Hirtenstein, and M Akhtar

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D005615 Freezing Liquids transforming into solids by the removal of heat. Melting
D012168 Retinal Pigments Photosensitive protein complexes of varied light absorption properties which are expressed in the PHOTORECEPTOR CELLS. They are OPSINS conjugated with VITAMIN A-based chromophores. Chromophores capture photons of light, leading to the activation of opsins and a biochemical cascade that ultimately excites the photoreceptor cells.

D013053 Spectrophotometry The art or process of comparing photometrically the relative intensities of the light in different parts of the spectrum.
D014238 Trichloroacetic Acid A strong acid used as a protein precipitant in clinical chemistry and also as a caustic for removing warts.
