English[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From international scientific vocabulary, and clearly reflecting New Latin, from Latin bīlis (“bile”). By surface analysis, bili- + -in, although according to American Heritage Dictionary, bilin was back-formed from phycobilin (as opposed to phycobilin being derived from bilin as surface analysis suggests).
Noun[edit]
bilin (plural bilins)
- (biochemistry) Any of various biological pigments formed in many organisms as a metabolic product of certain porphyrins.
