Introduction Transfer of long lived radionuclides such as Cs, Sr and transuranic elements in contaminated soils at Chernobyl to edible plants were examined. Analysis of radionuclides uptake from contaminated soils by plants is important from the point of view of not only the re-use of the soil, but also the decontamination of the contaminated soils by plants. This is especially true in the envi...

Cold plasma is an innovative and promising technology that developing in a variety of fields, recently it has been getting lot attention the agricultural industry. The influence cold atmospheric pressure (CAPP) exposure on germination parameters vigor radish (Raphanus sativus) carrot (Daucus carota sativus L.) seeds was investigated present study. A custom-designed driver utilizing 11.32 kV rms...

Raphanus, Brassicaceae, Phenylpropanoid Metabolism, Glucose Ester, Esterification. Protein extracts from seedlings of Raphanus sativus catalyze the transfer of the glucosyl moiety of UDP-glucose to the carboxyl group of phenolic acids. Enzymatic activity was determined spectrophotometrically by measuring the increase in absorbance at 360 nm and/or by the aid of high performance liquid chromatog...
