An assay based on light-mediated oxidation was used to determine whether specific spin labels were partitioned throughout the protoplast or retained in the plasmalemma of Avena sativa L. cv. Garry and Park. Many classes of spin label were tested, including phospholipids, fatty acid, fatty acid methyl ester, maleimide, iodoacetamide, short chain hydrocarbon, androstane, 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-ami...

Most dairy farms in Wisconsin continue to follow a fairly generalized formula of how to produce milk. Cows and replacement heifers are fed primarily homegrown feed from crop rotations comprising alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), corn (Zea mays L.), oats (Avena spp.) and soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.). Protein and mineral supplements are purchased to compliment dairy diets. However, the dairy indust...

Arabidopside A isolated from Arabidopsis thaliana is a rare oxylipin, containing 12-oxophytodienoic acid (OPDA) and dinor-oxophytodienoic acid (dn-OPDA) which are known as precursors of jasmonic acid (JA) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA). The senescence-promoting effect of arabidopside A was examined by an oat (Avena sativa) leaf assay under dark or continuous light condition. Arabidopside A promote...

The water permeability of tissues was investigated by measuring the efflux of (3)HHO from previously loaded (in darkness) etiolated bean buds (Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. Red Kidney), pea epicotyl segments (Pisum sativum L. var. Alaska), and oat coleoptile segments (Avena sativa L. var. Garry). Red light, far red light, or darkness was applied at the time of transfer of tissue from labeled to un...

OBJECTIVES The objective of the present study was to investigate the lipid and the antioxidant regulatory potential of a multigrain diet in laboratory animals with reference to lipid profiles, tissue lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status. METHODS Two types of diets, with or without addition of cholesterol, were used in the study - a commercial diet and a formulated multigrain diet (with S...

Цель работы ‒ изучение влияния транслокации тяжелых металлов (ТМ) (Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn, Pb, Cd) из почв г. Тюмени на биохимические параметры овса посевного (Avena sativa L., 1753). Почвы для исследования отобраны контрольном участке, вблизи автотрассы и промышленных предприятий города: моторостроительного, нефтеперерабатывающего, аккумуляторного металлургического заводов. В лабораторных условиях в о...
