THE EFFECT OF CHITOSAN AND PYTHIUM OLIGANDRUM USED IN PROTECTION OF POTATO TUBERS AGAINST LATE BLIGHT AND SOFT ROT
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2008, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Obtained results from experiments indicate the possibility of use both preparations Pythium oligandrum and Biochikol 020 PC in the protection of potatoes against pathogens caused tubers’ diseases: Phytophthora infestans, Fusarium spp. and Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora. It could be suggested that effect of Biochikol 020 PC and Polyversum (applied as tubers’ dressing and four times plants spraying) was significantly higher in comparision to the control.

CHARACTERISTICS OF ASCORBIC ACID RELEASE FROM TPP-CROSSLINKED CHITOSAN/ALGINATE POLYELECTROLYTE COMPLEX MEMBRANES
Chitosan/alginate polyelectrolyte complex membranes (Ch/Alg) additionally cross-linked with tripolyphosphate (TPP) and containing ascorbic acid (AA) were prepared. The dynamic swelling behaviour of Ch/Alg/TPP and ascorbi...
ROLE OF OLIGOCHITOSANS IN REGULATION OF CELLULAR ACTIVITY AND LOCATION OF PYRUVATE KINASE (PK) ISOENZYME M2 THAT AFFECTS PROLIFERATION OF EHRLICH ASCITES TUMOR CELLS (EAT)
The pyruvate kinase isoenzyme M2 originating from the nucleoplasm and cytoplasm of tumor cells, with its highest affinity to the 2-phosphoenolpyruvate (2-PEP) and sensitivity to L-cysteine, contributes to an increased ge...
MECHANISM OF FORMATION OF THERMOSENSITIVE CHITOSAN CHLORIDE GELS
In these studies, an attempt has been made to explain the mechanism of gel formation. The studies were carried out to develop the mechanism of chitosan gel formation in the presence of glycerol phosphate GP, taking into...
CHITOSAN/POLY(VINYL ALCOHOL) HYDROGELS AS CONTROLLED DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS
In order to achieve hydrogel and drug release profiles, a comprehensive knowledge of the types, properties and syntheses of hydrogel polymer networks are needed. For this reason, a natural biopolymer hydrogel based on ch...
Use of Chitosan Film Coatings in the Storage of Carrots (Daucus carota)
Chitosan film applied to coat carrot slices affected metabolic changes that increased the content of total phenolic acids and flavonoids. Chitosan coating of carrot slices delayed the overripening process and, consequent...
