Progress and Problems in Producing Nitrogen Dioxide-Philic Plants
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
The recently published articles in the Iranian Journal of Biotechnology inspired us to write this short communication on nitrogen dioxide NO2-philic plants (1). To cope with environmental pollution, we thought (still think) that development of methods that mitigate pollution is an urgent issue, and that NO2-philic plants that can grow with NO2 as the sole nitrogen source are instrumental for the implementation of mitigation of air pollution.

متن کاملnitrogen dioxide in school children
Objectives-To assess the distribution of personal exposures to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in school children, and to investigate factors that might influence personal exposure. Methods-NO, exposures were assessed by use of passive diffusion tubes for 46 children aged 9-11 years, selected from two Southampton schools. The tubes were worn for seven days, and parallel measurements were made with stati...
متن کاملNocturnal uptake and assimilation of nitrogen dioxide by C3 and CAM plants.
In order to investigate nocturnal uptake and assimilation of NO2 by C3 and crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants, they were fumigated with 4 microl l(-1) 15N-labeled nitrogen dioxide (NO2) for 8 h. The amount of NO2 and assimilation of NO2 by plants were determined by mass spectrometry and Kjeldahl-nitrogen based mass spectrometry, respectively. C3 plants such as kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus)...
متن کاملExperimental exposures to nitrogen dioxide.
Nitrogen dioxide (N02) produced by combustion processes, is a major constituent of ambient air pollution in urban and industrial areas. It also plays a role as an indoor air pollutant and in the workplace. Indeed acute inhalation accidents in the workplace with high concentrations of N02 provided the first evidence of its adverse respiratory effects. Epidemiological studies provided evidence of...
متن کاملCombined exposure to ozone and nitrogen dioxide.
The combined effects of ozone and nitrogen dioxide were assessed in an in vitro test system utilizing human red cells. In general, these two pollutants had additive effects on the parameters measured which included osmotic fragility, acetylcholinesterase activity, lipid peroxidation, reduced glutathione and methemoglobin levels. However, at lower pollutant doses a synergistic increase in lipid ...
متن کاملNitrogen Dioxide Concentrations in the Atmosphere
This Policy Position Statement outlines the technical challenges involved in the assessment and management of future concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) in the atmosphere. It notes that NO2 is the pollutant responsible for most breaches in European standards for air quality in the UK and that, as a result, a robust evidence based approach is required to assess future concentrations of this...
