Development of Extraction and Gas Chromatographic Analysis Methods for Epicuticular Waxes from Canyon Live Oak Leaves (Quercus chrysolepis) [PDF]
Epicuticular waxes of plants are important in protecting plants from a variety of several environmental factors, such as reducing evaporation of water from the surface, which prevents dehydration, and controlling important physiological properties.

Influence of epicuticular waxes on the photolysis of pirimicarb in solid phase
The influence of epicuticular waxes extracted from different fruits on the photodegradation of pirimicarb (I) in the solid phase was studied. Waxes were extracted with CHCl3 and CHCl3/CH3OH from nectarines (N), oranges (O-R), and mandarin oranges (M ...

Biomimetic replica of the epicuticular waxes on the lower epidermis of an English weed leaf
SEM images of an epoxy replica of the lower epidermis of the leaf of English weed (O. pes-caprae) showing replicated epicuticular waxes on top of a papilla (scale bar = 10 μm). The replica was obtained by a two-step moulding process.

Use of palmae wax hydrocarbon fractions as chemotaxonomical markers in Butia and Syagrus
The wax hydrocarbon fractions of native Butia and Syagrus species collected from Palms in different regions of the of Rio Grande do Sul state (Brazil) and in Rocha (Uruguay) were analyzed to evaluate their potential as chemotaxonomic markers. The wax was
