چکیده

We compared two radiotracer methods for measuring total microbial nucleic acid synthesis and specific growth rate. Using a sample from an oligotrophic environment, we found that there was excellent agreement between the two methods.

Diel nucleic acid synthesis and particulate DNA concentrations: Conflicts with division rate estimates by DNA accumulation l

The diel rate of microbial nucleic acid synthesis and the concentration of particulate DNA were measured at various locations in the oligotrophic Pacific Ocean. Net synthesis of RNA and DNA was observed over 24-h periods at all locations investigated, but the actual rate sometimes varied with time of day. It is concluded that whenever possible, daily rates of synthesis should be determined from...

Pretreatment with salicylic acid and nitric oxide alleviates silver nanoparticles toxicity in medicinal Hypericum perforatum plants

Since the use of seed priming agents to reduce the potential toxicity of AgNPs has not been explored, we evaluated the combined effects of 0.1 mM salicylic acid (SA) and 0.1 mM nitric oxide (NO) on responses of Hypericum perforatum plants to Ag-induced stress. The results of growth parameters together with measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA) revealed that exposure to AgNPs or AgNO3 caused more...

Using of modified sugarcane bagasse as a green and inexpensive catalyst for the synthesis of indeno[1,2-b]quinolin-8-one derivatives

Chemical grafting of 3-aminipropyl triethoxysilane to carbonized bagasse and acidification of amino groups leads us to introduce a new, efficient and green solid acid catalyst. We used the Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM), elemental-mapping and Energy Dispersive X-ray ...
