Figure 3

(a) Normalized UV–Vis spectra of the raw N. maculosa eggshell extract (green trace, EtOAc), extracted biliverdin 2Me (blue trace, MeOH), and extracted uroerythrin 3Me (red trace, MeOH). (b) HPLC traces of the raw extract from purple N. maculosa eggshells at two different wavelengths of detection. (c) Normalized UV–Vis spectra of the raw E. elegans eggshell extract (green trace, EtOAc), and of the two major components: biliverdin 2Me (blue trace, in MeOH) and bilirubin 4Me (orange trace, in MeOH). (d) NP-HPLC traces (at 400 nm detection wavelength) of the polar and nonpolar fractions from the E. elegans extract.
