Procedure to Isolate Viable Sperm Cells from Corn (Zea mays L.) Pollen Grains.
Sperm cells were isolated from corn (Zea mays L.) tricellular pollen grains. They were released using a light osmotic chock, and separated from pollen contaminants (especially starch grains) by a Percoll gradient centrifugation. Isolated sperm cells (3 x 10(6) per milliliter) show a high viability score (90%) as demonstrated with the fluorochromatic reaction. They appeared as spherical cells wh...
متن کاملFlow Cytometric Characteristics of Sperm Cells Isolated from Pollen of Zea mays L.
Sperm cells have been isolated from pollen of maize (Zea mays L.) and purified with Percoll density centrifugation. Their flow cytometric characteristics were determined on a FACScan flow cytometer with the fluorescent dyes, fluorescein diacetate and propidium iodide. Freshly isolated sperm cells appeared as a dot cluster on the forward scatter and side scatter dot plot. This dot cluster contai...
متن کاملHealth Benefits of Purple Corn (Zea mays L.) Phenolic Compounds
Purple corn (Zea mays L.), a grain with one of the deepest shades in the plant kingdom, has caught the attention of the food industry as it could serve as a source for alternatives to synthetic colorants. Also being rich in phenolic compounds with potential health-promoting properties, purple corn is becoming a rising star in the novel ingredients market. Although having been widely advertised ...
متن کاملPhenolic profiles of Andean purple corn (Zea mays L.)
Qualitative and quantitative high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) was performed to characterize the presence of phenolic compounds in Andean purple corn. Phenolic compounds were analyzed by separating them in two main fractions: a water fraction (WF) and an ethyl acetate fraction (EAF). The WF rich in anthocyanins revealed the presence of cyanidin-3-gluco...
متن کاملMicrobial development in distillers wet grains produced during fuel ethanol production from corn (Zea mays).
Distillers grains are coproduced with ethanol and carbon dioxide during the production of fuel ethanol from the dry milling and fermentation of corn grain, yet there is little basic microbiological information on these materials. We undertook a replicated field study of the microbiology of distillers wet grains (DWG) over a 9 day period following their production at an industrial fuel ethanol p...
