- Chlorophyll is any of several closely related green pigments found in cyanobacteria and the chloroplasts of algae and plants. is essential in photosynthesis, allowing plants to absorb energy from light.
- absorbs light most strongly in the blue portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, followed by the red portion. Conversely, it is a poor absorber of green , near-green portions of the spectrum, which it reflects.producing the green color of -containing tissues. molecules are specifically arranged in , around photosystems, that are embedded in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. Two types of exist in the photosystems of green plants: chlorophyll a and b.
Functions:
- Fristly It has superior coloring strength and good stabilization in neutral and alkali solutions.
- Sencondly has strong antibacterial action, which makes it useful in surgeries, ulcerative carcinoma, acute rhinitis and rhinosinusitis, chronic ear infections, inflammations, etc.
