  • (20) In the present investigation, flash-induced absorbance changes at 605 nm have demonstrated that the upper fraction is enriched two-fold in photochemical reaction center activity when compared to chromotophores; a similar enrichment in the reaction center-associated B-875 antenna bacteriochlorophyll complex was also observed.

Tentacle


Definition:

  • (n.) A more or less elongated process or organ, simple or branched, proceeding from the head or cephalic region of invertebrate animals, being either an organ of sense, prehension, or motion.

Example Sentences:
