In dark-grown or etiolated plants, phytochrome is present in a red light–absorbing form, referred to as Pr. Pr, which to the human eye is blue, is converted by red light to a far-red light–absorbing form called Pfr, which is blue-green.

In SEC if the analyte is large and completely excluded from the mobile phase within the particle, Kd = 0, whereas, if the analyte is sufficiently small to gain complete access to the inner mobile phase, Kd = 1 where Kd is distribution coefficient.
