Salt stress induced effects on biochemical parameters in etiolated maize leaf segments during greening
(African Journal of Biological Sciences, 2019-07-08)
Treatment of etiolated maize leaf segments with 0-300 mM NaCl during greening decreased the osmotic potential of leaf sap significantly. Na+ content of the leaf tissue increased significantly on supplying different ...
Analysis of certain biochemical indices on alloxan induced diabetic rats administered with protein isolated and purified from Vernonia amygdalina
(African Journal of Biological Sciences, 2019-04-12)
This study investigated the effect of protein isolate from leaf extract of Vernonia amygdalina in diabetic rats. Thirty (30) adults male Wistar rats were randomly divided into six (6) groups of five (5) each based on their ...
