Hubungan Aktivitas Nitrat Reduktase dan Kadar Klorofil Kultivar Kedelai Tahan Kekeringan

2018

<em>Plants suffering from drought stress can be indicated by the changing of character on the morphology, anatomy and physiology, characterized by inhibition of leaf growth, accelerated root growth, stomata closure and leaf curly. Cultivars that are tolerance to drought can physiologically adapted by increasing prolin level reduce the osmotic potential in order to maintain turgor in the condition of low tissue water potential. The research was aimed to study the physiological characters of drought tolerant soybean cultivar of determine the relationship of nitrate reductase activity and chlorophyll content of drought-tolerance cultivars and susceptible to drought stress conditions.

Occurrence of tomato pith necrosis caused by Pseudomonas marginalis in Italy.

2010

Dipartimento di Scienze e Tecnologie Fitosanitarie. Universita` degli Studi di Catania. Via Santa Sofia 100, 95123 Catania, ItalyIn 2006, a serious outbreak of tomato pith necrosis (TPN) with approxi-mately 90% disease incidence was observed in two greenhouses in Sicily.Adult fruiting plants showed chlorosis and slight wilting of shoot apices.Internalstem browning alongthe entire length oftheplant was observed.Pith tissues were soft but not rotted or hollowed. Only fluorescent colo-nies developed on King’s B medium (KB) after isolation from infected tis-sues. Ten pure isolates were all levan, oxidase, potato soft-rotting andarginine dihydrolase positive and were negative for tobacco hypersens…

In situ analysis of suspensions of calcium silicate hydrate : application to the study of ionics interactions at the surface of the particules

2014

This project aims to study the interactions between calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) and different anions (chlorides, bromides, nitrates and sulfates) in order to build a thermodynamic model and then be predictable. The simplified system CaO-SiO2-H2O is studied by synthesizing C-S-H suspensions and mixing them with different kind of salts (calcium salt or alkali salt). The influence of the temperature and the presence of aluminum in the structure of the C-S-H is also examined.A classical way to investigate this kind of system is to separate the liquid phase from the solid phase in order to analyze them separately. Nevertheless, this step has a large influence on the system, and the experime…

Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for 1-Propanol + Water + Calcium Nitrate

1999

Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria for all of the binary and ternary mixtures of 1-propanol, water, and calcium nitrate have been measured at 100.00 kPa using a recirculating still. The addition of calcium nitrate to the solvent mixture produced an important salt effect; the azeotrope was removed at salt mole fractions higher than 0.08. The three experimental binary data sets were independently fitted with the electrolyte NRTL model (Mock, B.; Evans, L. B.; Chen, C. C. AIChE J. 1986, 32, 1655−1664), and the parameters of Mock's model were estimated for each binary system. No ternary parameter was required. These parameters were used to predict the ternary vapor−liquid equilibrium using the sa…

Separation of U(VI) and Th(IV) from Some Rare Earths by Thin Layer Chromatography with Di‐(2‐Ethylhexyl)‐Dithiophosphoric Acid on Silica Gel

2005

Abstract Separation of U(VI) and Th(IV) from some rare earths by TLC has been studied using silica gel H and silica gel H impregnated with ammonium nitrate as the stationary phase. The solvent mixture ethyl‐methyl‐ketone–tetrahydrofuran (6∶3, v/v) containing di-(2‐ethylhexyl)-dithiophosphoric acid was used as the mobile phase. When silica gel H impregnated with 2.5 M NH4NO3 was used as stationary phase, the resolution was much improved and the separation of rare earths from each other was also achieved. The tetrad‐effect was observed in variation of R*m versus the atomic number of rare earths.

Flow injection-spectrophotometric determination of metoclopramide hydrochloride.

1997

Abstract The determination of metoclopramide hydrochloride is spectrophotometrically determined by the Bratton-Marshall method in a flow injection assembly. The required nitrite is prepared on-line in the flow assembly by reducing a nitrate solution with the aid of a copperised cadmium solid-phase reactor. The calibration graph is linear over the range 0.5–85 mg l−1, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 0.89%, and sample throughput of 51 samples h−1. The method is easy and simple, and it is applied to determination of metoclopramide in some pharmaceutical formulations. The method eliminates the need for frequent preparation of unstable nitrite solutions.

Effect of Nitrogen Fertilization on the Quality of Swiss Chard at Harvest and during Storage as Minimally Processed Produce

2014

The effects of different levels of nitrogen fertilization (0–50–100–150–200 kg/ha), minimal processing and cold storage (14 days at 4C) on yield and quality of fresh-cut Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris L. var. cicla L.) were evaluated. Increasing the level of nitrogen fertilization over 100 kg N/ha, plants had a higher fresh weight, reduced their dry matter content and resulted taller and leafier. Total and marketable yield increased linearly with increasing nitrogen level. Both nitrate and ascorbic acid content at harvest increased with increasing nitrogen supply. Nitrogen fertilization negatively affected the yield of minimal processing. No effect on appearance and quality loss during cold sto…

Evaluation of sewage sludge-based compost by FT-IR spectroscopy

2006

The aerobic batch composting fermentations of sewage sludge with wood chips and maturity compost as co-composting additives were carried out in an open type lab-scale reactor. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectroscopy was used to monitor the composting process, evaluate the degradation rate and thus determine the maturity. Although the composition of the input mixture strongly affects the shape of the infrared (IR) spectra, typical bands of components can be selected and used to follow the composting process. The appearance, shape and intensity of the nitrate band at 1384 cm 1 was well pronounced and evident for a sewage sludgebased compost maturity. An increase of the pe…
