Effect of silicon application on wheat seedlings growth under water-deficit stress induced by polyethylene glycol

Silicon is known to ameliorate the deleterious effects of drought on plant growth. We evaluated growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. CV. Chamran) under Water-Deficit Stress Induced by Polyethylene Glycol as affected by Si application. In this article, the effects of Si (as potassium silicate) on some parameters related to growth, chlorophyll concentration relative water content (RWC), electrol...

Ethylene glycol and polyethylene glycol catabolism by a sewage bacterium.

Bioconsequences Section, Unilever Research Port Sunlight Laboratory, Port Sunlight, Wirral, Merseyside L62 4XN, U.K. Polyethylene glycols are an important group of polymers used in the manufacture of explosives, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. In addition, the polyoxyethylene group is the hydrophilic head group of non-ionic surfactants such as the alcohol ethoxylates used in detergent formulatio...

Plasma expansion by polyethylene-glycol-modified albumin.

Systemic inflammatory response conditions are associated with capillary leak and haemodynamic compromise. Fluid resuscitation to reverse the ensuing hypovolaemia is, however, complicated by the decreased endothelium reflection coefficient to albumin and other colloids. We developed PEG-Alb (albumin covalently linked to polyethylene glycol) as a potential resuscitative agent. PEG was covalently ...

Polyethylene glycol degradation by UV irradiation

Degradation or polyethylene glycol has been studi ed by UV irradiation. A drastic change in the morphology from spherulite to rhythmic pattern has been observed under polarized light microscope when exposed to UV light. Molecular weight of PEG. Rr value and melting point have been recorded after UV exposure. On UV exposure there has also been a change in UV. IR and powder X-ray diffraction patt...
