The first action spectrum was made by T. W. Engelmann, who split light into its components by the prism and then illuminated Cladophora placed in a suspension of aerobic bacteria. He found that bacteria accumulated in the region of blue and red light of the split spectrum.

"A prism was used by Engelmann for splitting light into its spectral components, and subsequently illuminated a green alga, caldophora, positioned in an aerobic bacteria suspension.

The purpose of the bacteria was to detect sites of oxygen evolution. It was observed that the bacteria primarily accumulated in the area of blue & red light of the split spectrum, therefore resulting in the first action spectrum of photosynthesis.
