Photosensitive Film Formed on Brass in Ethanolic Cupric Chloride Solution

Electrolytic Regeneration of Acid Cupric Chloride

Convection Pattern Formed by Photosensitive Microorganisms

Euglena is one of the photosensitive microorganisms. It has been known that culture of Euglena forms macroscopic convection pattern, which is called " bioconvection, " with strong light illumination from the bottom. In this presentation, I would like to introduce to the bioconvection pattern of Euglena and to show how to control it.

Protective effects of manganese(II) chloride on hyaluronan degradation by oxidative system ascorbate plus cupric chloride

The degradation of several high-molar-mass hyaluronan samples was investigated in the presence of ascorbic acid itself and further by an oxidative system composed of ascorbic acid plus transition metal ions, i.e. Fe(II) or Cu(II) ions. The latter oxidative system imitates conditions in a joint synovial fluid during early phase of acute joint inflammation and can be used as a model for monitorin...

Isorhodopsin II: artificial photosensitive pigment formed from 9,13-dicis retinal.

We have found that in addition to the 11-cis and 9-cis isomers of retinal which are known to couple with the visual pigment apoprotein opsin to form pigments, a third isomer 9,13-dicis retinal also will form a pigment. That this isomer is indeed bound to opsin has been shown unequivocally by removing the chromophore without isomerization and subsequent identification by high-speed liquid chroma...
