The process of photosynthesis is initiated by the capture of sunlight by a network of light-
absorbing molecules (chromophores), which are also responsible for the subsequent …

Carotenoid has gained a reputation amongst researchers for its robust antioxidant
capabilities. This review reasons the inevitability of carotenoid for a larger role than just …

Carotenoids are ubiquitous and essential pigments in photosynthesis. They absorb in the
blue-green region of the solar spectrum and transfer the absorbed energy to (bacterio-) …

The design of optimal light-harvesting (supra) molecular systems and materials is one of the
most challenging frontiers of science. Theoretical methods and computational models play a …

Chlorophylls and bacteriochlorophylls, together with carotenoids, serve, noncovalently
bound to specific apoproteins, as principal light-harvesting and energy-transforming …

The photophysical and photochemical reactions, after light absorption by a photosynthetic
pigment–protein complex, are among the fastest events in biology, taking place on …

Carotenoids are, along with chlorophylls, the most abundant pigments found in nature. They
are present in most organisms including humans but can be synthesized only by plants and …

Photosynthetic light harvesting in excess light is regulated by a process known as feedback
deexcitation. Femtosecond transient absorption measurements on thylakoid membranes …

Carotenoids are naturally occurring pigments that absorb light in the spectral region in which
the sun irradiates maximally. These molecules transfer this energy to chlorophylls, initiating …

Hydrogen sulfide releasing agents (or H2S donors) have been recognized gasotransmitters
with potent cytoprotective and anticancer properties. However, the clinical application of …
