Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Ecology
  • Botany

Andrew J. Young spends much of his time researching Photochemistry, Xanthophyll, Violaxanthin, Carotenoid and Chlorophyll fluorescence. His Photochemistry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Non-photochemical quenching, Quenching, Light-harvesting complex, Photosystem II and Zeaxanthin. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Chlorophyll under Quenching, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Diatoxanthin.

His work focuses on many connections between Violaxanthin and other disciplines, such as Antheraxanthin, that overlap with his field of interest in Absorption spectroscopy. Andrew J. Young is exploring Carotenoid as part of his Biochemistry and Botany and Carotenoid studies. His Chlorophyll fluorescence study contributes to a more complete understanding of Photosynthesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Antioxidant and Prooxidant Properties of Carotenoids (577 citations)
  • Control of the light-harvesting function of chloroplast membranes by aggregation of the LHCII chlorophyll-protein complex. (412 citations)
  • The photochemistry of carotenoids (403 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Carotenoid, Xanthophyll, Botany, Violaxanthin and Biochemistry. His Carotenoid research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Photosynthesis and Pigment. Andrew J. Young interconnects Lutein, Zeaxanthin, Photochemistry and Light-harvesting complex, Photosystem II in the investigation of issues within Xanthophyll.

In his research, Thylakoid is intimately related to Chlorophyll fluorescence, which falls under the overarching field of Photochemistry. His work on Algae, Genus, Hordeum vulgare and Carotenoid composition as part of general Botany study is frequently linked to Conophytum, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Violaxanthin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Antheraxanthin, Biophysics, Photoinhibition and Neoxanthin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Carotenoid (40.00%)
  • Xanthophyll (32.31%)
  • Botany (31.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

  • Botany (31.54%)
  • Conophytum (7.69%)
  • Genus (6.92%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Conophytum, Genus, Taxon and Ecology. His work in Botany incorporates the disciplines of Genome size and Variation. His Genus research includes elements of Paleontology and Section.

His studies deal with areas such as Subspecies and Trichome as well as Taxon. Many of his research projects under Ecology are closely connected to Biome with Biome, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His study in Habitat is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Arid and Climate change.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Inhibition of apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter as a novel treatment for diabetes. (80 citations)
  • Carotenoids-Antioxidant Properties. (58 citations)
  • Discovery of a highly potent, nonabsorbable apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter inhibitor (GSK2330672) for treatment of type 2 diabetes. (57 citations)
