Drought is one of the most important environmental factors limiting the cultivation of ornamental plants in the green space. The effects of spermidine and salicylic acid on hollyhock (Alcea rosea L.)under drought stress were investigated. At first, the plants were sprayed with 3 doses of spermidine and 3 doses of salicylic acid (control, 100, 200 and 400 μM) for three consecut...

the effect of different concentration of salicylic acid (0, 1 and 2 mmoll-1) and chitosan (0, 0.5 and 1 percent) on postharvest life and quality of selva strawberry fruit during storage at 2.5±0.5°c with 85-95% rh for 7 and 14 days was studied. decay incidence, marketability, total soluble solids, total acidity, vitamin c content and total antioxidant activity were evaluated during storage. chi...

lentil is considered as salinity sensitive species and is adversely affected in response to the salt stress in terms of growth and yield. this pot experiment was conducted to determine the effect of exogenous salicylic acid (sa) application on physiology, growth, yield and yield components of lentil grown under salt stress in greenhouse conditions, in a factorial arrangement based on randomized...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate maternal and neonatal plasma concentrations of acetylsalicylic acid and salicylic acid and the neonatal endogenous prostanoid formation during low-dose aspirin prophylaxis (LDA; 100 mg daily) in pregnant women. METHODS Concentrations of acetylsalicylic acid and salicylic acid in maternal plasma after at least 4 weeks of LDA (n = 14) and in umbilical cord plasma of newbor...

The purpose was to investigate the in vivo skin penetration of four 14C-salicylic compounds using microdialysis and to relate dermal concentrations to structural features. Furthermore, to compare two in vivo retrodialysis recovery methods for estimation of true unbound extracellular concentrations. Microdialysis probes were inserted in the dermis of hairless rats. Equimolal 14C-salicylic formul...

Background Non-enzymatic hydroxylation of aromatic compounds to the respective phenolic derivatives is a possible metabolic pathway of xenobiotics. The formed metabolites can undergo consecutive oxidative reactions with free radicals to form potential toxic molecules. Objective Development of HPLC methods to separate, identify and quantitate the main products formed from salicylic acid, 2,3-d...

Root colonization by specific nonpathogenic bacteria can induce a systemic resistance in plants to pathogen infections. In bean, this kind of systemic resistance can be induced by the rhizobacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa 7NSK2 and depends on the production of salicylic acid by this strain. In a model with plants grown in perlite we demonstrated that Pseudomonas aeruginosa 7NSK2-induced resista...

8 9 1. Detailed experimental procedures for OH determination: 10 In this study, the measurements of salicylic acid degradation were both separately done 11 from the DHAA degradation experiments and concurrently with the DHAA measurements. 12 The OH concentration were calculated through the determination of the products of salicylic 13 acid-OH reaction (2,3-dihydroxybenzonic acid and 2,5-dihydro...

As part of a proactive approach to environmental protection, emerging issues with potential impact on the environment is the subject of ongoing investigation. One emerging area of environmental research concerns pharmaceuticals like salicylic acid, which is the main metabolite of various analgesics including aspirin. It is a common component of sewage effluent and also an intermediate in the de...

The present investigation has evaluated the influence of aspirin, its constituents, and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents on the resistance of human platelets to aspiration into micropipettes. Aspirin increased the length of platelet extensions into the micropipette over the entire negative tension range of 0.04 to 0.40 dynes/cm after exposure to the drug in vitro or after ingestion o...
