Despite being one of the most important staple food consumed by more than half world population, development red rice still lacks behind regular white rice. In Madura, farmers use their local landraces with pericarp. Since growing season is dependent on rainfall, those are expected to provide some useful genes related drought tolerance. This research aimed select drought-tolerant accessions can...

Sustained release matrix pellets loaded with 5% w/w diclofenac sodium (DS) were prepared using extrusion/spheronization technique. Different polyethylene glycols (PEGs) of different molecular weight, namely PEG 2000, PEG 4000 and PEG 6000 were mixed with avicel PH 101® in different weight ratios to manufacture the pellet formulations and water was used as a binder. Mix torque rheomter was used ...

Ibuprofen solid dispersions were prepared by the solvent and fusion-solvent methods using polyethylene glycol (PEG), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), eudragit RS PO, eudragit RL PO and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) as carriers to improve physicochemical characteristics of ibuprofen. The prepared solid dispersions were evaluated for the flowability, solubility characteristics and dissolution be...

Anggrek Dendrobium sp. adalah salah satu jenis anggrek yang diminati dalam pasar anggrek. Masalah kekeringan merupakan kendala aktivitas pertumbuhan secara fisiologis maupun morfologis. Salah cara dapat digunakan untuk mengembangkan kultivar resisten terhadap cekaman yaitu dengan seleksi kultur in vitro planlet PEG 6000. Tujuan penelitian ini mengetahui kisaran konsentrasi 6000 toleran dan meng...

C-phycocyanin from Spirulina platensis was purified in aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) of polyethylene glycol (PEG)/potassium phosphate, varying the molar mass of the PEG. Results using a full factorial design showed that an increase in the concentration of salt and decrease in the concentration of PEG caused an increment in the purification factor for all the ATPS studied. Optimization of the...

In Central Europe, European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) wood has a high potential for the production of construction and decorative materials, with aim replacing Norway spruce, oaks, other traditionally used tree species. However, biological resistance wood—to decaying fungi, molds, insects—is low, in damp conditions its must be increased suitable preservatives or modification methods. present e...

The early stages of quinoa germination are sensitive to drought stress. For this purpose, a study entitled the effect selenium in different concentrations on characteristics and some antioxidant enzymes under stress conditions with polyethylene glycol (PEG 6000) was investigated. first experimental factor seed priming (from two sources: sodium selenate nanoparticles: SeNPs ? 33.4 nm) at 0.5, 1....
