Plant Genomic DNA Isolation: An Important Technology for Marker Assisted Selection | Chapter 7 | Recent Progress in Plant and Soil Research Vol. 4

Plant biotechnology is required to increase the chances of crop enhancement projects succeeding. DNA marker technology, which is derived from molecular genetics and genomics research, holds a lot of potential for plant breeding. In plant breeding, marker-assisted selection improves efficiency and precision. Mapping and marker-assisted selection of a certain characteristic necessitates high-quality DNA from a

Study on Trace Elemental Analysis in “Jeevanti” (Leptadenia reticulata (Retz.) Wight & ARN.) – An Ayurvedic Medicinal Plant | Chapter 2 | Technological Innovation in Pharmaceutical Research Vol. 11

Leptadenia reticulata (Retz.) Wt. & Arn. (Asclepiadaceae) is a rare medicinal plant known in Ayurveda as Jivanti or Jivana for its life-giving properties. Antioxidant, antimicrobial, vasodilator, galactogogue, Jivaniya, and other healing characteristics, Jivanti is also utilised in veterinary medicine for its lactogenic action. Jivanti was a key Rasayana for Charak. Sushruta utilised it to boost

Studies on Kinetics and Mechanism of Oxidation of GSH by cis-(diaqua)-bis-(ethylenediamine) Cobalt(III) Ion | Chapter 7 | Current Advances in Chemistry and Biochemistry Vol. 10

Using 103[Co(III)] = 5 mol dm-3, 2.5 102[GSH] 10.00 mol dm-3, 3.5 pH 5.0, 318K T 333K at a fixed ionic strength I = 0.3 mol d-3, the kinetics of GSH oxidation to GSSG by cis-(diaqua)-bis-(ethylenediamine) cobalt(III) perchlorate were examined spect (NaClO4). The first-order kinetic trend in the depletion of [Co (III)] at 500 nm

Analytical Techniques for Determining Chloropyrifos in Fruits and Vegetables | Chapter 7 | Recent Trends in Chemical and Material Sciences Vol. 1

For the detection of chloropyrifos, highly sensitive spectrophotometric and gas chromatographic methods were established. The base was chloropyrifos alkaline hydrolysis to 1,2,4-trichloropyridine, followed by coupling with congored in the presence of nitric acid. At 605nm, the absorption maxima of blue colour formed at 800-900C. In the range of 0.5-5.7 ppm, Beer’s law was followed. 0.005
