A total of 13 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were surveyed in dry whole soybeans (Glycine max L.) sold for human consumption. The analysed samples were commercialised in vegetarian shops and food stores in Southern Brazil regions. The determination of PAHs levels was carried out by high
Rhizo-box experiments were conducted to analyze the phyto-microbial remediation potential of a grass (Lolium multiflorum L.) and a crop (Glycine max L.) combined with exogenous strain (Pseudomonas sp.) for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contaminated soils. The dynamics of bacterial
A decrease in photosynthetic efficiency may indicate the toxic effects of environmental pollutants on higher plants. Measurement of chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence to assess the performance of photosystem II (PSII) was used as an bioindicator of toxicity of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)
Changes in the chemical composition of fulvic acids in used oil-contaminated soils treated with different plant species and fertilization (fertilized, F; and nonfertilized, NF) were analyzed by Fourier-Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Soil contaminated with 1.5% (w/w) used motor oil was
The plant hormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA or auxin) added at a concentration for half-maximal promotion of cell elongation (1 mum) caused an increase of 25% in the fluorescence polarization of the membrane-bound probe N-phenyl-1-naphthylamine, when added to fractions enriched in plasma membranes
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] stalk-based biochar was prepared using oxygen-limited pyrolysis. We evaluated phenanthrene (PHE) and Hg(II) sorption, from single and binary component solutions, onto prepared biochar. We found that the prepared biochar efficiently removed PHE and Hg(II) from aqueous
Infrared spectroscopy of highly purified fractions of plasma membrane vesicles from hypocotyls of etiolated soybean (Glycine max L.) seedlings revealed changes in bands assigned to proteins and phospholipids upon exposure to the growth hormone analog, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). The
