All of the conjugated dyes used have the largest absorbance at different wavelengths of light. As the figure below indicates these molecules possess a great deal of conjugation such that the electrons are delocalized across the chain. Quantum Chemical Models of Electronic Transitions of Conjugated Dyes The dyes are light sensitive, and so if it is necessary to store the dye solutions, protect them from light.
