The present study was carried out to evaluate the effects of light and plant growth regulators on callus induction and explant browning in date palm cultivar, Estameran in in vitro condition. The explants were pretreated by an antioxidant combination (100 mgl-1 citric acid and 150 mgl-1 ascorbic acid) for 3 days in 5 °C. Then, the  leaf explants  were cultured in Murashige and Skoog medium (MS)...

In this research, the acclimatized in vitro plants were transferred to the aeroponic system and the effects of paclobutrazol (PBZ) and jasmonic acid (JA) were investigated on the production of potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cvs Agria and Svalan) minitubers. Some plant characteristics were also investigated in this cultivation system, under greenhouse conditions. Plants were foliar sprayed with PB...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most prevalent cancer type worldwide with a mortality rate of approximately 50%. Elevated cell-surface expression of truncated carbohydrate structures such as Tn antigen (GalNAcα-Ser/Thr) is frequently observed during tumor progression. We have previously demonstrated that the C-type lectin macrophage galactose-type lectin (MGL), expressed by human antigen p...

3-chloroaniline (3CA) concentrations were measured in aqueous solution by UV/Vis spectrophotometer. Validation of the calibration curve’s linearity, instrumental precision (RSD%), limits detection and quantification accomplished. The coefficient curve (1.0–10.0 mgL?1 3CA) had a high correlation (R2 = 0.9997) was range (RSD% 0.50–0.74%, n 10). LOD LOQ from regression analysis 0.20 0.61 mgL?1, re...

Analytical equations historically used to predict the onset of electron backstreaming in ion thrusters tend to underestimate significantly the accel grid voltage required to block electron backflow from the beam plasma because they neglect detailed beamlet focusing and space charge effects inside the grid apertures. We present corrected analytical equations that provide a good estimate of the m...

The endogenous cannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) is produced by neurons and other cells in a stimulus-dependent manner and undergoes rapid biological inactivation through transport into cells and catalytic hydrolysis. The enzymatic pathways responsible for 2-AG degradation are only partially understood. We have shown previously that overexpression of monoacylglycerol lipase (MGL), a cyt...

The present studies report in vitro propagation of a rare and medicinally important orchid Vanda testacea through foliar explants. Explants were cultured on Mitra et al. (M) medium and its combinations with cytokinins (BAP, Kn 1 mgl each) and auxin (NAA 1 mgl) individually and in combination for initiation of regeneration response, proliferation of regenerants and subsequent development of plan...

The waste water generation from the automobile motor workshop activities are responsible for environmental degradation in form of pollution and showed variable impact on plant growth. This paper gives information, assessment screening about effect work shop seedling growth two different types legume bean crops namely, kidney (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) mung (Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilkczek) pot cult...

many factors may influence the efficiency of somatic embryogenesis. this capability may be differ with regard to media compositions, genotype, tissue, organ ontology and the stage of differentiation. the effects of five salicylic acid concentrations (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mm) on different stages of carrot somatic embryogenesis were studied using petiole and root secondary phloem explants as sta...
