Commercially-available 4,4'-dimethyloctafluorobiphenyl was converted in a single step to 4-(4'-methyltetrafluorophenyl)-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzyl bromide (MTFP-TFBBr) for the purpose of providing a new electrophoric derivatizing reagent. When reacted with this reagent, 2-fluoro-O6-(2'-hydroxyethyl)hypoxanthine, a model analyte, gave a mixture of isomeric products (apparently substituted at N7 and N9, analogous to its known reaction with pentafluorobenzyl bromide), and 53 femtograms of the mixture was detected at S/N = 10 by gas chromatography electron capture mass spectrometry (GC-EC-MS). As intended, the volatility of the MTFB-TFBBr derivative was much less (two-fold) than that of the corresponding pentafluorobenzyl derivative. It is anticipated that MTFB-TFBBr sometimes will be useful in providing an electrophoric derivative that encounters less background noise in analysis by electrophore derivatization/GC-EC-MS.
We have successfully developed a method to induce early in vitro flowering of the self-pollinated seedlings of a tropical orchid hybrid, Dendrobium Madame Thong-In. Transition of vegetative shoot apical meristem to inflorescence meristem was observed when young protocorms were cultured in modified KC liquid medium. In contrast, protocorms cultured on Gelrite-solidified medium only produced axillary shoots and roots. CW was required to trigger the transitional shoot apical meristem and BA enhanced inflorescence stalk initiation and flower bud formation. However, normal flower development was deformed in liquid medium but developed fully upon transferring to two-layered (liquid over Gelrite-solidified) medium. Under optimal condition, in vitro flowering was observed about 5 months after seed sowing. Segregation of flower colours was observed in these seedlings and seedpods formed upon artificial pollination of the in vitro flowers.
An efficient, cyclic, two-step protocol for micropropagation of medicinal tree, Crataeva nurvala has been successfully developed, which can be employed at a commercial scale. Nodal explants from 30-year-old tree when cultured on MS medium supplemented with 2.22 microM BAP produced multiple shoots, which elongated satisfactorily on the same medium. Nodal and leaf explants from in vitro regenerated microshoots too developed shoots, thus making the process recurrent. In 6-month duration, owing to the recurring nature of the protocol, over 5400 shoots could be produced from a single nodal explant from the adult tree. Addition of casein hydrolysate significantly increased the average number of shoots per explant. Maximum number of shoots regenerated on medium supplemented with 100 mg l(-1) casein hydrolysate. Shoots could be rooted on 1/2 MS supplemented with 0.11 and 0.54 microM NAA. Regenerated plantlets were acclimatized and successfully transplanted to soil.
