A chlorophyll-based polymer shows stepwise evolution from nonhelical to helical structures, offering a new route to adaptive ...

Chlorophyll is the pigment responsible for giving plants, grasses and algae their gorgeous green hues. But it’s more than just a color: this powerful phytonutrient helps plant photosynthesize and turn ...

Researchers from North Carolina State University have successfully synthesized bacteriochlorophyll a, which is a photosynthetic pigment found in bacteria that absorbs infrared light. The work ...

Researchers from Chiba University synthesized two chlorophyll derivatives (ChG2 and ChG3) that self-assemble into rosette patterns, columnar stacks, and disc-shaped aggregates depending on the solvent ...

Synthetic materials rarely mimic the dynamic helicity observed in biological systems like DNA and proteins, often forming ...

Chlorophyll water is a mixture of water and a water-soluble form of chlorophyll called chlorophyllin. Some research suggests that chlorophyllin may have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties ...
