A 6-hour application (6-hour pulse) of 1 millimolar azide significantly changed the phase of the potassium uptake rhythm of Lemna gibba G3. The phase response curve obtained was type 0 and very similar to that caused by a 6-hour pulse of low temperature (5 degrees C) or darkness. The magnitude of
Antihypertensive pharmaceuticals, including the beta-blockers, are one of the most detected therapeutic classes in the environment. The ecotoxicity of propranolol hydrochloride and losartan potassium was evaluated, both individually and combined in a binary mixture, by using the Lemna minor growth
The effect of Li(+) on the period of the K(+) uptake rhythm in the flow medium culture of the duckweed (Lemna gibba G3) was investigated under various ionic conditions. In the presence of Li(+) at 0.2 millimolar or higher concentrations, the period was longer than the normal level of 25.4 hours by 2
Little is known about the degradation of the most abundant protein in nature, ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBP carboxylase, EC 4.1.1.39), probably reflecting the fact that no stress situation has been identified capable of causing extensive RuBP carboxylase degradation without causing the
From our theoretical treatment which is an extension of the classical Donnan theory, we have estimated the rational selectivity coefficients of the carboxylic groups of the walls during exchanges of divalent ions against monovalent ones (i.e. calcium and potassium or calcium and sodium ions). These
The use of wood as a sustainable biofuel results in the generation of residual wood ash. The ash contains high amounts of plant macronutrients such as phosphorus, potassium, calcium as well as several micronutrients. To explore the potential use of wood ash as a fertiliser, the growth enhancing
1. The branched-chain pentose apiose reacts with the benzidine-trichloroacetic acid reagent on paper chromatograms to give a yellow spot with.an intense white fluorescence in ultraviolet light; on chromatograms developed with butanol-acetic acid-water this spot lies between fucose and rhamnose. 2.
OBJECTIVE
A bioassay with duckweed (Lemna gibba L.) was used to study the effects of homeopathic potencies on the plant's growth rate. Screening included 12 substances: argentum nitricum, copper sulfate, gibberellic acid, 3-indole acetic acid, kinetin, lactose, lemna minor, methyl jasmonate,
Along with cadmium, lead, mercury and other heavy metals, chromium is an important environmental pollutant, mainly concentrated in areas of intense anthropogenic pressure. The effect of potassium dichromate on Lemna minor populations was tested using the growth inhibition test. Cyto-histological and
1. Radioactivity from d-[l-(14)C]glucosamine is incorporated into ethanol-insoluble compounds of high molecular weight in a number of plant tissues, including roots of corn (Zea mays), callus cells of sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus), axenic cultures of duckweed (Lemna minor) and germinating seedlings
Lemna minor is a species easy to collect and culture in laboratory, and can give rapid test results. However, in order to standardise toxicity tests using Lemna minor as test organism, it is important to find out what natural variability different populations might have. Five Lemna populations were
Whereas the "law of the minimum" (LM) states that plant growth is limited by a single resource at any one time, the "multiple limitation hypothesis" (MLH) proposes that optimum plant behavior results from balancing resource costs and benefits so that all resources limit plant growth simultaneously.
The degradation of Acid Blue 92 (AB92) solution was investigated using a sonocatalytic process with pure and neodymium (Nd)-doped ZnO nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The 1%
Mining operations often use passive and/or active water treatments to improve water quality prior to environmental release. Key considerations in choosing a treatment process include the extent to which the water quality is actually improved, and the potential residual environmental risks of the
Extensive production of nanomaterials of various properties needs to be coupled with rapid toxicity testing in order to provide information about their potential risks to the environment and human health. Miniaturization of toxicity tests may accelerate economical testing of nanomaterials, but is
