    The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is an independent bureau within the United States Department of the Treasury that was established by the National Currency Act of 1863 and serves to charter, regulate, and supervise all national banks and federal thrift institutions and the federally licensed branches and agencies of foreign banks in the United States.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-dependent_reactions

    The light-harvesting system of PSI uses multiple copies of the same transmembrane proteins used by PSII. The energy of absorbed light (in the form of delocalized, high-energy electrons) is funneled into the reaction center, where it excites special chlorophyll molecules (P700, with maximum light absorption at 700 nm) to a higher energy level.

    4, were also present in ozone samples due to the difficulty of applying analytical chemistry techniques to the explosive concentrated chemical. [ 26 ] [ 27 ] In 1923, Georg-Maria Schwab (working for his doctoral thesis under Ernst Hermann Riesenfeld ) was the first to successfully solidify ozone and perform accurate analysis which conclusively ...

  5. Chemiluminescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemiluminescence

    Chemiluminescence (also chemoluminescence) is the emission of light (luminescence) as the result of a chemical reaction, i.e. a chemical reaction results in a flash or glow of light. A standard example of chemiluminescence in the laboratory setting is the luminol test.

  6. Organic photochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_photochemistry

    The influence of the radiation on the reaction rate can often be represented by a power law based on the quantum flow density, i.e. the mole light quantum (previously measured in the unit einstein) per area and time. One objective in the design of reactors is therefore to determine the economically most favorable dimensioning with regard to an ...

    Photochemical immersion well reactor (50 mL) with a mercury-vapor lamp.. Photochemistry is the branch of chemistry concerned with the chemical effects of light. Generally, this term is used to describe a chemical reaction caused by absorption of ultraviolet (wavelength from 100 to 400 nm), visible (400–750 nm), or infrared radiation (750–2500 nm).

    Oat phytochrome absorption spectrum (Devlin, 1969). Phytochromes are a class of photoreceptor proteins found in plants, bacteria and fungi.They respond to light in the red and far-red regions of the visible spectrum and can be classed as either Type I, which are activated by far-red light, or Type II that are activated by red light.
