Changes in Total Phenol and Some Enzymatic and Non-Enzymatic Antioxidant Activities of Rose-scented Geranium (Pelargonium graveolens) in Response to Exogenous Ascorbic Acid and Iron Nutrition
Strong antioxidant activity of Pelargonium graveolens is well known. The question addressed in this study was whether different concentrations of exogenous ascorbic acid (AsA) and iron (Fe) were able to influence antioxidant activity and total phenol content (TPC) of geranium. Thus, three levels of Fe (0, 20 and 40 µM) and three levels of AsA (0, 1 and 2 mM) in nutrient solution were c...
متن کاملEffects of Chromium on Enzymatic/Nonenzymatic Antioxidants and Oxidant Levels of Portulaca oleracea L.
Purslane(Portulaca oleracea L.) is a local plant in Iran that can easily breed. Chromium is a heavy metal that causes toxicity for the growth and development of plants. To study the effects of potassium dichromate on growth, efficiency of photosystem II (Fv/Fm), cell membrane stability index (MSI), indexes of oxidative stress and antioxidant properties of purslane, an experiment was d...
متن کاملComparative evaluation of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants of petal of three species of saffron (Crocus caspius, C. sativus, C. speciosus)
Nowadays, the use of a wide range of medicinal herbs such as saffron and its aromatic compounds is increasingly being regarded as natural sources of antioxidant properties. In addition to saffron stigma, saffron petal is a rich herbal source of antioxidant compounds. The present study was conducted in a completely randomized design with three replications to study some of the enzymatic and non-...
متن کاملEffects of electromagnetic field radiation on inducing physiological and biochemical changes in Satureja bachtiarica L. Fariba Ramezani Vishki1*, Ahmad Majd2, Taher Nejadsattari1 and Sedighe Arbabian2
As organisms exposed to various abiotic and biotic environmental impacts, plants are able to recognize and respond to their surrounding environment with high specificity. Electromagnetic field radiation is an important effective stress factor on growth and development of plants. Our research focused on plants grown from wet pretreated seeds with low frequency electromagnetic field exposure comp...
