Ultraviolet-B component of sunlight stimulates photosynthesis and flavonoid accumulation in variegated Plectranthus coleoides leaves depending on background light
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2015)
We used variegated Plectranthus coleoides as a model plant with the aim of clarifying whether the effects of realistic ultraviolet-B (UV-B) doses on phenolic metabolism in leaves are mediated by photosynthesis. Plants were ...
Avarol derivatives as competitive AChE inhibitors, non hepatotoxic and neuroprotective agents for Alzheimer's disease
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2016)
Avarol is a marine sesquiterpenoid hydroquinone, previously isolated from the marine sponge Dysidea avara Schmidt (Dictyoceratida), with antiinflammatory, antitumor, antioxidant, antiplatelet, anti-HIV, and antipsoriatic ...
Immobilization of hexavalent chromium by fly ash-based geopolymers
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
In this paper the immobilization of hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)) by fly ash (FA)-based geopolymers was investigated, depending on FA characteristics, mechanical activation of FA, geopolymer synthesis conditions and ...
Silicon increases phosphorus (P) uptake by wheat under low P acid soil conditions
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2017)
Although silicon (Si) is known to improve plant growth under low phosphorus (P) conditions, the in planta mechanisms responsible for this effect are still unknown. Here, we investigated the role of Si on P uptake along ...
Transformation of Cs-exchanged clinoptilolite to CsAlSi5O12 by hot-pressing
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Dense CsAlSi5O12 was successfully obtained by hot pressing of Cs-exchanged clinoptilolite at 900 degrees C. Simultaneous application of high temperature and mechanical pressure allowed formation of CsAlSi5O12 at temperature ...
Determination of the sources of nitrate and the microbiological sources of pollution in the Sava River Basin
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2016)
Coupled measurements of nitrate (NO3-), nitrogen (N), and oxygen (O) isotopic composition (delta N-15(NO3) and delta O-18(NO3)) were used to investigate the sources and processes of N cycling, while the microbial source ...
Chitosan and pectin-based films and coatings with active components for application in antimicrobial food packaging
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2021)
This investigation was aimed to develop films and coatings based on natural biopolymers and active components, with physicochemical and functional properties for application in antimicrobial packaging. Biopolymer films ...
Influence of tungsten doping on dielectric, electrical and ferroelectric behavior of BaBi4Ti4O15 ceramics
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2017)
The effect of tungsten (W6+) doping on modification of the structure, dielectric, ferroelectric and electrical properties of BaBi(4)Ti(4-x)WxO(15) (BBTWx, x = 0, 0.03, 0.05 and 0.07) was investigated. The ceramic samples ...
Far infrared reflection spectroscopy of Zn2SnO4 ceramics obtained by sintering mechanically activated ZnO-SnO2 powder mixtures
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2007)
A mixture of starting ZnO and SnO2 powders (molar ratio 2: 1) were mechanically activated for 10, 40, 80 and 160 min in a planetary ball mill and then isothermally sintered at 1300 degrees C for 2 h in order to obtain ...
Interactions of Silicon With Essential and Beneficial Elements in Plants
(Frontiers Media Sa, Lausanne, 2021)
Silicon (Si) is not classified as an essential element for plants, but numerous studies have demonstrated its beneficial effects in a variety of species and environmental conditions, including low nutrient availability. ...
