The total pore volume, specific surface area and average pore diameter of these four kinds of AAB show a regular changing trend, increasing first and then decreasing, the optimum of which can be achieved at a sulfuric acid concentration of 25% （sample A25）. The kinetic analysis of the adsorption of β-carotene and chlorophyll in model oil solutions, namely, xylene and edible oil solution, has been investigated by using AAB. Experimental results indicated that the adsorption data fit the pseudo-second-order model well. The whole adsorption process of the two pigments on AAB was divided basically into two parts： the initial adsorption of pigments was rapid in the first l0 rain, followed by a slower adsorption process till equilibrium was attained at 60 rain. In addition, the amount and rate of adsorption on A25 increase synchronously with the initial pigment concentration and temperature. The results showed that the adsorption kinetics behavior of AAB with respect to the pigments is not influence by the xylene and edible oil solution.展开更多

In attention to time consuming and effect of uncontrolled agents like soil elements and hemisphere, study of tolerance in soybean to water stress during germination was investigated. Four soybean cultivars ＇Williams, Linford, L 17 and M7＇ were screened for drought tolerance by treatment of PEG6000 concentration for induce osmotic potentials （0, -3, -6, -9 bar）. A factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications was conducted. Germination percentage, radicle and hypocotyls length, fresh and dry weight of radicle, hypocotyl and seedling, TWC%, MDG, rate of daily germination and percentage of abnormal seedling were measured. Variance analysis of data indicated that difference between osmotic potential had significant effect on all parameters except germination percentage. A significant reduction in fresh weight of radicle and seedling, percentage of abnormal seedlings was observed for the genotypes as the concentration of PEG increased. In interaction between cultivars and water stress level, Linford and M7 with less damage had the highest yield in fresh and dry weight of radicle, respectively. Drought is one of the most important abiotic limited potential in germination and primary growth on these cultivars.展开更多
