dichroism

The secondary structure composition can be determined via circular dichroism.

Also the blue appearance of some automobile windshields is caused by dichroism.

Circular dichroism is one of the most general and basic tools to study protein folding.

Dichroism has two related but distinct meanings in optics.

The denaturation can be monitored through a change in circular dichroism.

Calculations also indicate birefringence and dichroism at high fields.

This unequal absorption is known as circular dichroism.

In regions of absorption, magnetic circular dichroism is observable.

He also studied the fine structure of these chromophores using circular dichroism.

This intrinsic property is what is usually meant by the circular dichroism of the substance.

It is related to dichroism, which is the same property but usually described in terms of absorption rather than transmission.

Opalescence is a type of dichroism seen in highly dispersed systems with little opacity.

Iridescence and dichroism are a different story.

Explanations for dichroism from particle physics, outside quantum electrodynamics, also have been proposed.

Circular dichroism spectroscopy measures the absorption of circularly polarized light.

Cotton then became interested in the Faraday effect near absorption lines and demonstrated magnetic circular dichroism.

Similar to circular dichroism the stimulus for folding can be a denaturant or temperature.

This is the basis of circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy.

It is the extension of circular dichroism spectroscopy into the infrared and near infrared ranges.

In these compounds the readout is by circular dichroism rather than by ordinary spectroscopy.

(See dichroism for the etymology of the term.)

Now scientists have discovered how such elements can contribute to sexual dichroism, the difference in color between males and females, in one butterfly species.

Circular dichroism spectrometers contain a monochromator, for example.

Molar ellipticity is circular dichroism corrected for concentration.

Circular dichroism is another laboratory technique for determining internal beta sheet/ helical composition of proteins.
