Evaluation of Plant Photosynthesis

Plant photosynthesis is a biochemical process by which plants use photosynthetic pigments to convert sunlight energy into the chemical energy, to splits water to liberate oxygen, and to fix carbon dioxide into carbohydrate molecules such as sugars, starches, glycogen, and cellulose. Photosynthesis is the sum of a series of complex metabolic reactions, the basis of biological survival, and an important medium of the earth's carbon and oxygen cycle.

STEMart is able to efficiently and accurately evaluate plant photosynthesis with a wide range of biochemical methods.
