Penetration of glyphosate salts across isolated poplar (Populus canescens (Aiton) Sm) cuticular membranes (CM) was studied using Na+, K+, NH4+, trimethylsulfonium+ (TMS) and isopropylamine+ (IPA) as cations. After droplet drying, humidity over the salt residues on the outer surfaces of

In this study, an orthogonal array design was applied to know the way different parameters affected the derivatization of some herbicides that are commonly applied in the soils. Herbicides formulated as esters have been reported to rapidly hydrolyse, in contact

Gas-liquid chromatography of cellular fatty acids is a useful tool for the identification of bacteria. Derivatization of bacterial fatty acids to methyl esters by conventional techniques is usually time-consuming and complicated. A new one-step technique using trimethyl-sulfonium hydroxide allows the

Reaction efficiencies of two organic alkalis, tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) and trimethylsulfonium hydroxide (TMSH), with lipids during thermally assisted hydrolysis and methylation (THM) were examined focusing on (1) the types of lipids and (2) degree of unsaturation of fatty acid moieties.
