chlorophyll (plant pigment, natural organic pigment, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Green pigment found in found in virtually all photosynthetic organisms, including plants and various green water-animalcules. It is involved in photosynthesis, which is the process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy through the synthesis of organic compounds: it absorbs energy from light; this energy is then used to convert carbon dioxide to carbohydrates. Pure chlorophyll appears as waxy dark green to black crystals. Chlorophyll has been used as a green colorant in clothing, soaps, leathers, waxes, foods, liquors, and perfumes. It is also used as a sensitizer for color film and as a deodorizer.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 存在於幾乎所有能行光合作用的有機體內的綠色色素，包括植物以及各種綠色的水生微生物體內皆有。葉綠素與光合作用有關，光合作用乃是經由有機化合物的合成，將光能轉變為化學能的過程：葉綠素吸收光的能量，再將此能量用來將二氧化碳轉化為碳水化合物。純的葉綠素為蠟狀深綠色到黑色的晶體，葉綠素曾用來當作衣物、肥皂、皮革、蠟、食品、酒類以及香水的綠色染色劑，也可當作彩色軟片的感光劑，或作為除臭劑。 |
| Dutch ..... Enige van diverse groene plantpigmenten die functioneren als fotoreceptoren van lichtenergie voor fotosynthese. |
| Spanish ..... Cualquiera de varios pigmentos verdes de plantas que funcionan como fotorreceptores de la energía luminosa para realizar la fotosíntesis. |
