This study was conducted to assess the induced-changes in the content of total phenolics and individual phenolic acids, total and individual polyamines and some organic acids in the leaves of two important Iranian grapevine cultivars under different durations of drought stress, and to determine their involvement in grapevine drought tolerance. For this purpose, ‘Yaghuti’ as a drought-toler...

organic acid occur as physiologic intermediates in variety of intracellular metabolic pathways, such as catabolism of aminoacid, mitochondrial β oxidation of fatty acids, tricarboxilic acid cycle, and cholestrol and fatty acid biosynthesis. the classical organic aciduria represent the pursuit of abnormalities of aminoacid degradation beyond deamination their diagnostic hallmark is an accumulati...

Phytotoxicity of aluminium is one of the most serious problems in limiting plant growth in acidic soils. A number of plant species exhibit inheritable aluminium tolerance by the secretion of organic acids which is highly specific to aluminium stress and localized to the root apices. Organic acids have been considered to play an important role in the detoxification of aluminium, both externally ...

Heavy metal contamination of soil, water and air has caused serious environmental hazard in the biosphere due to rapid industrialization and urbanization. A variety of metal binding ligands such as organic acids and amino acids involve in the heavy metal remediation mechanisms by plants. This paper analyses the possible role of amino acid histidine and organic acids, namely, citric, oxalic and ...

nowadays the use of probiotic products especially yogurt, due to having wonderful and health properties, has become popular in the world. in this study, the effect of homogenization pressure (100, 150 and 200 bars) and stage (single and two) on the amount of lactic and acetic acids was investigated. yoghurts were manufactured from low-fat milk treated using high pressure homogenization at 100,1...

the postharvest life of cut eustoma grandiflorum flowers is limited in open flowers. therefore a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with ascorbic acid (asa) at 4 levels (0, 100, 200, 300mg l-1) and citric acid (ca) at 3 levels (0, 100, 200 mg l-1) with 3 replications and 3 samples for each replications, was conducted for this purpose. results indicated that a significa...

Certain organic carbon moieties in drinking source waters of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta can react with chlorine during disinfection to form potentially carcinogenic and mutagenic trihalomethanes. The properties of reactive organic carbon in Delta waters, particularly those of soil origin, have been poorly understood. This study attempts to characterize trihalomethane reactivity of soil or...
