Description:
Folic acid and vitamin C were used in the concentration range of 0-500@mM as exogenous growth enhancers to stimulate pea (Pisum sativum) seedling vigour. The results suggest that a concentration of 50@mM folic acid and 500@mM vitamin C were optimum in maximally enhancing seed vigour and potentially seedling performance according to both agronomic and biochemical seed vigour parameters. Results indicated that germination percentage, shoot weight, shoot height, and root length were enhanced in folic acid and vitamin C treated plants compared to control plants. The levels of enhanced phenolic content in response to folic acid and vitamin C treatments were highest on days 8 and 10. Evaluation of critical biochemical parameters indicated that the average glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) activity and proline content in response to treatments were higher than control and correlated to enhanced phenolic content and DPPH-based antioxidant activity. Key enzymes, guaiacol peroxidase (GPX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase (CAT) were also higher in response to treatments and correlated to enhanced phenolic content and DPPH-based antioxidant activity. Taken together, these studies support the hypothesis that the proline-linked pentose phosphate pathway stimulates phenolic synthesis and related free-radical scavenging antioxidant activity. Further, this proline-linked pentose phosphate pathway stimulation in response to folic acid and vitamin C was also correlated to antioxidant enzyme response indicated by the stimulation of GPX, SOD, and CAT activities. Therefore, this study indicates the enhancement of seed vigour response by folic acid and vitamin C as reflected in both agronomic and biochemical responses, and this occurred through the stimulation of phenolic-linked antioxidant response that is likely positively modulated through the proline-linked pentose phosphate pathway.

Pharos Trips and Pics Photo Linked Portable GPS Unit

Based on a review from someone who bought this item, who said that the software did NOT add the GPS coordinates to the EXIF file for a .jpg image, I decided to remove this from my wish list and continue to use my Garmin GPS, which works just fine for recording the GPS coordinates and I can add the data to the EXIF file later.

Removal of phthalate esters by @a-cyclodextrin-linked chitosan bead [An article from: Bioresource Technology]

Description:
Removal of phthalate esters (PAEs) by @a-cyclodextrin (CD)-linked chitosan bead in aqueous solution was studied. Results of kinetic experiments indicated that diheptyl phthalate (DHpP) was adsorbed most efficiently (3.21mg/g) among the six PAEs. DHpP recovery was 94.6% from @a-CD-linked chitosan bead by shaking both with a mixture of methanol and water (v/v=8/2). The recovered @a-CD chitosan bead was reusable as an adsorbent 20 times in the batch tests. The adsorbed PAE by @a-CD-linked chitosan bead decreased as temperature increased. However, coexisting pH, NaCl, and Ca^2^+ did not affect adsorption efficiency. It was concluded that the application of low cost @a-CD-linked chitosan bead could have the potential to effectively remove PAEs from different aquatic environments.
