Addition of 100 millimolar KCl, NaCl, or Na(2)SO(4) strongly promoted acidification of the medium by cells of Nicotiana tabacum/gossii in suspension culture. Acidification was greater in the case of NaCl-adapted than in that of wild type cells, and strikingly so in KCl medium when fusicoccin (FC) was present. Back-titration indicated that net proton secretion in KCl medium was increased 4-fold ...

The study is aimed to assess the compatibility of bilberry leaf powder extract (BLPE) with six excipients selected for sustained-release (SR) tablet formulation. BLPE was obtained addition L-arginine and Myo-inositol as carriers. Thermogravimetric (TG-DTG) analysis Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), supported by Pearson correlation analysis, were applied detect possible interaction...

Background: The herbicide 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D) can cause moderate to lethal poisoning. Although urine alkalization has been recommended as the main treatment, hemodialysis (HD) may be more effective in severe cases. Case: On 24th June 2014, a 53- year-old man ingested a high amount of 40% 2, 4-D. He suffered from mouth and epigastric burning sensation, vomiting and nausea...

Exocrine cells have an essential function of sorting secreted proteins into the correct secretory pathway. A clear understanding of sorting in salivary glands would contribute to the correct targeting of therapeutic transgenes. The present work investigated whether there is a change in the relative proportions of basic proline-rich protein (PRP) and acidic PRPs in secretory granules in response...

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merri.] is an important oilseed and food crop. In recent years, environmental degradation has accelerated soil alkalization, salinization, water deficit, which have seriously threatened the soybean quality yield. Chaperone DNAJ proteins play roles in plant response to a number of abiotic biotic stresses. Here, we investigated function gene, GmDNAJC7, tolerance GmDNAJC7...

Goal. To study the influence of ecological fertilizer systems (EFS) on physicochemical, agrochemical, and biochemical indicators gray forest soil’s fertility winter wheat yield. Methods. Field — to determine impact EFS properties soil; laboratory establish quantitative qualitative characteristics soil environment; comparative compare yield levels wheat; mathematical-statistical substantiate pro...

The Cucurbitaceae is a genetically diverse group of plants containing several important commodity crops in many parts the world such as cucumber, pumpkin and melon. In last decades, fruit rot caused by Stagonosporopsis spp. became major disease both field grown greenhouse cucurbits. Yield losses due to can show seasonal peaks up 30%. Despite its economic importance, only limited information ava...

Acidification of milk destabilizes casein micelles (CMs) and results in network formation. This process is fundamental during the manufacturing dairy gels such as cheese yoghurts. Understanding structural alterations CMs this aids to predict physicochemical sensory properties gels. Herein we utilize direct Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy (dSTORM) visualize individual hydrated chara...

Carrageenan is a polysaccharide compound extracted from red seaweed and widely used by food, cosmetic, advanced materials industries because of its good properties as an environmentally friendly stabilizer. extraction generally uses alkaline treatment for one full day, where the to obtain carrageenan quality with gel characteristics. The use cellulase enzymes thought accelerate desulfuration pr...
