Aim of the study: We tested alternative active principles to most widely used resin tapping stimulant which contains sulphuric acid. also studied effect wounding in five-year-old Pinus pinaster seedlings with a microtapping method.Area The experiment was carried out at Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Spain.Material and Methods: consisted six treatments: control (no no wounding), wound stimula...

MAGEE. T. V., and D. F. ZINKEL. 1986. A rapid method for diterpene resin acid analysis of pine needle oleoresin. Can. J. For. Res. 16: 1107-1109. A method for diterpene resin acid analysis has been developed for pine oleoresin samples at the submilligram level. The method utilizes the removal of acidic components by a micro-DEAE-Sephadex ion-exchange column and analysis of the recovered resin a...

The resin of Boswellia species has been used as incense in religious and cultural ceremonies and in medicines since time immemorial. Boswellia serrata (Salai/Salai guggul), is a moderate to large sized branching tree of family Burseraceae (Genus Boswellia), grows in dry mountainous regions of India, Northern Africa and Middle East. Oleo gum-resin is tapped from the incision made on the trunk of...

A clean process has been developed for the synthesis of 2-adamantylphenol derivatives through adamantylation of substituted phenols with adamantanols catalyzed by commercially available and recyclable ion-exchange sulfonic acid resin in acetic acid. The sole byproduct of the adamantylation reaction, namely water, could be converted into the solvent acetic acid by addition of a slight excess of ...

In a previous communication (5), the author has shown that when the effective carcinogenic potency of 3,4-benzpyrene for the mouse's skin was reduced by application of the hydrocarbon in a dilution ot~ o.o 5 per cent, the low tumor yield (o to 6 per cent at the 2oth week) was increased to 80 per cent by application of croton resin concurrently with the benzpyrene. 1 This augmentation of carcino...

A mixture of a carhoxylic acid type of cation exchange resin and a weakly basic anion exchange resin has been used successfully to control the edema of 42 patients wvith congestive heart failure andl the ascites of 14 patients with cirrhosis of the liver. Approximately one-third of the cation exchanger was supplied in the potassium cycle. Inclusion of the anion exchange resin resulted in a grea...

A resin-phase extraction method has been optimized for the trace determination of tin(II) by ETAAS. Tin(II) was extracted on a finely divided anion exchange resin as the complex with ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (APDC). The resin was collected on a membrane filter and then dispersed in 1.00 ml of 1 mol l(-1) nitric acid containing 100 microg of Pd(II) and 60 microg of Ni(II). The resulti...

OBJECTIVE Evaluate, in vitro, the microtensile bond strength (µTBS) of RelyX ARC conventional resin cement and RelyX Unicem and Maxcem self-adhesive resin cements to dentin, and the influence of polyacrylic acid pretreatment on the µTBS. MATERIAL AND METHODS Flat dentin surfaces were obtained in 15 third molars which were randomly divided into 5 groups: Group 1 - RelyX ARC (control); Group 2 ...
