Q:i also need the color they are links would be great if you know a good one

If you want to physically separate the different pigments, you can use a method called paper chromatography. The chlorophyll is dissolved in a certain solute and is allowed to move through a piece of paper. The different pigments will move at different speeds and they will be separated. But if you simply want to identify the different pigments, you can use another method called spectrophotometry. Different chlorophyll pigments absorb photons of different wavelength. In diethylether, chlorophyll a has approximate absorbance maxima of 430 nm and 662 nm, while chlorophyll b has approximate maxima of 453 nm and 642 nm. So that's how you distinguish between the two.

Q:can pigment ink be used to tattoo?

Pigment ink? Tattoo ink is pigment ink. Printer ink is pigment ink. Crayola markers are pigment ink. It all comes down to what it's manufactured for and whom is doing the manufacturing. Reputable shops use certain brands of tattoo ink for a reason. Using something not made for the human body at all makes for an ugly tattoo and can cause infections or other problems seeing as nothing in it's manufacturing process is sanitary or compatible with use in skin.

Q:Hi what is pigment?i went on mac cosmetics and they sell all different kinds of stuff called pigment. I want to use it to make lip gloss but is it safe for my lips?please answer soon!

It's like loose eye shadow.. except a more vibrant colour.. you'll get more colour pay off (usually). Pigments are nice - if you're just starting off.. go with Vanilla Pigment, it's uses are endless! And yes, you can use it on your lips.. sometimes I even use blush on my lips with a nice lip gloss.

Q:do all leaves extract contain the same pigments??why?

Absolutely not. Leaf pigments, just to name a few, may include chlorophyll, carotenes, lutein, anthocyanins. Not only will pigment content vary between plant species, but pigment content will vary in individual plants seasonally.

Q:I Need a Bright Colorful High Pigmented Eyeshadow Pallet. i saw some on amazon. but Tehre Out Of stock. :[ Also i need bright colors like realllly bright

Kryolan and Mehron are amazingly bright and are used by youtube makeup guru AllThatGlitters21 ALL the colors are intense, but they have to be used wet. They have a very strong color payoff, and are so true to the palet color. Mac pigments are kind of on the expensive side, and they do give you ALOT of product, but sometimes alot is a bad thing because you cant always use all of it. Hope this helps :)

Q:Are carontenoids and anythocyanin accesory pigments.

Accessory pigments are those , that can not do photosynthesis and manufacture sugar as essential pigment chlorophyll does. But these accessory pigments capture solar energy in the form of photons and then transfer it to chlorophyll molecules / pigments . Thus increasing the power of chlorophyll to do photosynthesis . carontenoids and anythocyanin are accesory pigments. click on the links below to learn more about the accessory pigments - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accessory_p... www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/glossary/gl... www.cas.muohio.edu/~meicenrd/BMZ1... Thank you !

Q:I need to find powdered paint or pigment that I can throw, for some photographs.Preferably cheap, and that wouldn't stain skin.I've looked into powder paint, though this tends to stain skin for about a week.Thanks :)

Wear protective gloves if you don't want your hands stained. You should also be concerned because many pigments have toxic chemicals that can absorb through the skin.

Q:i was thinking of this all day long and then i thought of posting this question for you to help me sort it out

Pigments are molecules that absorb specific wavelengths (energies) of light and reflect all others. Pigments are colored: the color we see is the net effect of all the light reflecting back at us. Absorb: Electrons in molecules can exist at specific energy levels. Normally they exist at the lowest possible energy level they can. However, if enough energy comes along to boost them into the next level, they can absorb that energy and occupy that higher level. This is what pigments do. The light they absorb contains' just the right amount' of energy necessary to push them into the next level. Any light that does not have enough or has too much energy can not be absorbed and is reflected. The electron in the higher energy level, however, does not 'want' to stay there(i.e. it is unstable). It 'wants' to return to its normal lower energy level. In order to do this it must get rid or release the energy that has put it into the higher energy state to begin with. This can happen several different ways: 1) The extra energy can be converted into molecular motion and lost as heat. 2) Some of the extra energy can be lost as heat energy, while the rest is lost as light. This re-emission of light energy is called florescence. 3)The energy, but not the e- itself, can be passed onto another molecule. This is called resonance. 4)The energy and the e- can be transferred to another molecule. Plant pigments usually utilize the last two of these reactions to convert the sun's energy into their own. When chlorophyll is isolated from the enzymes it is associated with, the second scenario can be seen to happen.

Q:a. chlorophyll ab. chlorophyll bc. chlorophyll cd. carotenoid pigments

Chlorophylls are greenish pigments which contain a porphyrin ring. This is a stable ring-shaped molecule around which electrons are free to migrate. Because the electrons move freely, the ring has the potential to gain or lose electrons easily, and thus the potential to provide energized electrons to other molecules. This is the fundamental process by which chlorophyll captures the energy of sunlight. There are several kinds of chlorophyll, the most important being chlorophyll a. This is the molecule which makes photosynthesis possible, by passing its energized electrons on to molecules which will manufacture sugars. All plants, algae, and cyanobacteria which photosynthesize contain chlorophyll a. A second kind of chlorophyll is chlorophyll b, which occurs only in green algae and in the plants. A third form of chlorophyll which is common is (not surprisingly) called chlorophyll c, and is found only in the photosynthetic members of the Chromista as well as the dinoflagellates. The differences between the chlorophylls of these major groups was one of the first clues that they were not as closely related as previously thought. Carotenoids are usually red, orange, or yellow pigments, and include the familiar compound carotene, which gives carrots their color. These compounds are composed of two small six-carbon rings connected by a chain of carbon atoms. As a result, they do not dissolve in water, and must be attached to membranes within the cell. Carotenoids cannot transfer sunlight energy directly to the photosynthetic pathway, but must pass their absorbed energy to chlorophyll. For this reason, they are called accessory pigments. One very visible accessory pigment is fucoxanthin the brown pigment which colors kelps and other brown algae as well as the diatoms. From this I would say the answer is c.

Q:How can you extract pure pigments from a sample of leaves in a form that you could test the absorbency of the various pigments??I don't know how to extract enough pigment in order to fill a cuvette and measure the absorbance, please help!! :D

Separation of plant pigments using chromatography. Paper chromatography is a useful technique in the separation and identification of different plant pigments. In this technique, the mixture containing the pigments to be separated is first applied as a spot or a line to the paper about 1.5 cm from the bottom edge of the paper. The paper is then placed in a container with the tip of the paper touching the solvent. Solvent is absorbed by the chromatographic paper and moved up the paper by capillary action. As the solvent crosses the area containing plant pigment extract, the pigments dissolve in and move with the solvent. The solvent carries the dissolved pigments as it moves up the paper. The pigments are carried along at different rates because they are not equally soluble. Therefore, the less soluble pigments will move slower up the paper than the more soluble pigments. This is known as developing a chromatogram.
