چکیده

The cytokinins constitute one of the five groups of plant hormones, and are characterised by their ability to promote cell division in cultured plant callus tissue under appropriate conditions [I-31. With the exception of diphenylurea, all cytokinins that have been unambiguously identified in extracts of higher plants are derivatives of adenine, including 6-aminoand riboside-substituted compounds. While the electrochemical behaviour of other adenine derivatives has been explored quite extensively [4-121, no study has yet been reported on this important class of biologically important adenine derivatives. We have, therefore, carried out a preliminary investigation into the polarographic behaviour of the following cytokinin derivatives as a prelude to more detailed investigations in this topical field of research.

POLAROGRAPHIC AND POTENTIOSTATIC REDUCTION OF CARBODIIMIDES: A MECHANISTIC STUDY

The polarographic reduction of aromatic carbodiimides in anhydrous aprotic solvents goes through a carbene intermediate by a diffusion controlled process in two one-electron steps. The first step is the rate-determining step and converts the carbodiirnide to a radical anion (6) that reduces further by a fast one-electron step to a carbene dianion intermediate (7). This abstracts an oxygen, ...

Polarographic Studies of Human Blood Sera

R. BrdiEka, in 1937, in a note to the editor of Nature (1), reported the application of the polarographic method to cancer diagnosis, through the measurement of certain sulphur-containing amino acids present in the proteins in human blood serum. Brdicka made tests on the serum from 67 different persons; 32 of these gave an abnormally low polarographic protein effect. These 32 cases were shown b...

A Quick and Simple Polarographic Method for Aluminum Measurement in Recombinant Hepatitis B Vaccine

Abstract        Background and Objective: Aluminum salts are among the most common useful additive compounds in preparation of human and animal vaccines. Aluminum phosphate and aluminum hydroxide are two additives that show good immunoadjuvant effects with many antigens. Aluminum-containing vaccines lead to a better and longer immune response compared to adjuv...
