| [spectrophotometric determination of scandium,gallium and vanadium in white cabbage leaves]. | scandium, gallium and vanadium contents in plants is on the ppm level, although plants from industrial areas can show higher concentrations of these elements. in department of analytical chemistry of silesian university there have been elaborated new, sensitive, spectrophotometric methods of determination of scandium, gallium and vanadium using chrome azurol s (cas) and sterinol (st). the aim of this study was the application of these methods in analysis of cultivated plants from polluted region ... | 1997 | 9562804 |
| [preparation and characterization of low protein, cell structural material. ii. materials with cellular structure from carrot and white cabbage]. | the molecular parameters and functional properties of low-protein materials with a cellular structure are determined by both the conditions of preparation and the kind of raw material used. compared to alcohol-insoluble substance, the conditions of preparation were modified. when an alkaline extraction and a favorable combination of processing steps is used, materials with special low protein and high pectin contents result. in addition, such functional properties as water binding capacity and c ... | 1994 | 7975914 |
| structure-activity relationship of isolated avenanthramide alkaloids and synthesized related compounds as oviposition deterrents for pieris brassicae. | the structure-activity relationship was investigated of compounds isolated from the eggs of pieris brassicae, the large white cabbage butterfly, and eight synthesized related compounds as oviposition deterrents for this insect. the activity of all compounds was tested in a dual-choice bioassay. the two most active oviposition deterrents for p. brassicae were trans-2- [3-(4-hydroxyphenylpropenoyl)amino]-3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid [8] and trans-2-[3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenylpropenoyl)amino]-3,5-dihydrox ... | 1994 | 7964796 |
| allene oxide cyclase: a new enzyme in plant lipid metabolism. | the mechanism of the biosynthesis of 12-oxo-10,15(z)-phytodienoic acid (12-oxo-pda) from 13(s)-hydroperoxy-9(z),11(e),15(z)-octadecatrienoic acid in preparations of corn (zea mays l.) was studied. in the initial reaction the hydroperoxide was converted into an unstable allene oxide, 12,13(s)-epoxy-9(z),11,15(z)-octadecatrienoic acid, by action of a particle-bound hydroperoxide dehydrase. a new enzyme, allene oxide cyclase, catalyzed subsequent cyclization of allene oxide into 9(s),13(s)-12-oxo-p ... | 1990 | 2306110 |
| [lead and cadmium contamination of foods and feeds from selected areas of the erfurt district. 4. lead in vegetables grown in culture centers of the erfurt region]. | for the purpose of determining the effect of heavy metal emissions of a great town on the lead and cadmium levels of vegetables that are of relevance to food supply, we analyzed 193 samples of vegetables from the important vegetable-growing centre of erfurt during a 3-year period. with regard to the main wind direction and the infrastructure of the town, the samples were collected at four different areas under vegetable. apart from a single exception, the lead and cadmium contents were inferior ... | 1983 | 6633634 |
