Solar Irradiation of Bilirubin: An Experiment in Photochemical Oxidation
Pillay A. E.; Salih, F. M.
Journal of Chemical Education, v83 n9 p1327 Sep 2006
An experiment in photochemical oxidation, which deals with bilirubin, a well-known light-sensitive biological compound that is pedagogically ideal for photochemical experiments at tertiary institutes, is presented. The experiment would benefit students in chemistry who eventually branch out into the health sciences or biochemistry.
