This experiment was conducted to determine the effect of foliar spray with polyamines on postharvest life of chrysanthemum cut flowers in the horticulture laboratory of Islamic Azad University of Rafsanjan in 2015. For this purpose, an experiment was conducted based on a completely randomized design with three replications with spermidine, spermine and putrescine treatments at 1, 2 and 3 mM con...

in this research the effect of potrecine, spermine and spermidine on the postharvest life of cut red carnation (corsa) and some physiological trait was investigated in horticultural lab of azad university. therefore, an experiment based on completely randomized block design with tree levels of putrescine (1, 2 and 3) mm and spermidine (0.5, 1 and 2) and spermine (1, 2 and 3) mm with 3 replicati...

softening and microbial activity are the most common problems of kiwifruit during storage. in order to improve these problems, pre- harvest treatments of putrescine and spermidine were studied on shelf life of kiwifruit cv. hayward. foliar spraying of different concentrations of purescine (0, 1 and 2 mm) and spermidine (0, 1 and 2 mm) has been done at 40 and 20 days before harvest. different ch...

Spermidine, N-(3-aminopropyl) butane-1,4-diamine, is a low-molecular-mass organic base (C7H19N3, CAS 124-20-9) and belongs to the polyamine family which includes spermine and putrescine, the direct precursor of spermidine (Figure 1). At ambient temperature (22-25 °C) spermidine is a colorless liquid or a white powder. In biological samples, the two primary amine groups and the secondary amine g...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of exogenous polyamines, isopropyl ester, 2, 4-d and naphthalene acetamide application on yield and quality of date palm of ‘kabkab’ cultivar. the inflorescences sprayed with 2, 4-d isopropylester (0, 10, and 20 mg l-1), naphthalene acetamide (0, 80, and 120 mg l-1), putrescence and spermidine (0, 0.1, and 1.0 mm), three or six weeks after pollin...

drought is one of the most important environmental factors which limit the growth of woody plants. iran is located in arid and semi-arid area therefore the growth and cultivation of ornamental trees and shrubs were limited. for this purpose, effect of foliar-applied salicylic acid and/or spermidine (0, 100, 500 and 1000 µmol) on reduce drought stress injuries of one-year seedlings ofosage orang...

Eighteen patients with melphalan refractory myeloma were treated with vindesine and prednisone. Plasma spermidine concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay before and after a single vindesine injection. Seven patients showed a significant rise of plasma spermidine after vindesine and five of these showed a clinical response on further evaluation. Of the 11 patients who did not show raise...

A spermidine excretion protein in Escherichia coli was looked for among 33 putative drug exporters thus far identified. Cell toxicity and inhibition of growth due to overaccumulation of spermidine were examined in an E. coli strain deficient in spermidine acetyltransferase, an enzyme that metabolizes spermidine. Toxicity and inhibition of cell growth by spermidine were recovered in cells transf...
