Genetics of gel consistency in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

open access: yesJournal of Genetics, 1991
Inheritance of gel consistency in rice was studied in crosses involving highamylose, low-gelatinizalion temperature parents with hard, medium, and soft gel consistency. The results of single-grain analysis of parents, F1, F2, B1F1, B2F2, and their reciprocal crosses from a single-season harvest showed that the differences between hard and soft, hard ...

A single nucleotide polymorphism in the Waxy gene explains a significant component of gel consistency

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Genetics, 2011
Gel consistency (GC) is a standard assay used in rice improvement programmes to determine whether rice cultivars/breeding lines of high amylose content are soft or firm textured when cooked. In this study, we show that sequence variation in exon 10 of the Waxy (Wx) gene associates with GC using RILs derived from parents with high amylose content that ...

A gel consistency test for eating quality of rice

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1973
AbstractA rapid, simple test, complementary to the test for amylose content, was developed based on the consistency of a cold 4.4% milled‐rice paste in 0.20 N‐KOH. Consistency is measured by the length in a test tube of the cold gel held horizontally for 0.5 or 1 h.

Alkali Digestibility Pattern, Apparent Solubility and Gel Consistency of Milled Rice

Starch/Staerke, 1978
AbstractAnalysis of milled rice samples differing in alkali digestibility pattern, apparent solubility on cooking, and gel consistency showed that the alkali digestibility pattern is not a reliable indicator for differentiating indica and japonica rices.

Molecular valve consisting of poly(acrylic acid) gel

Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical, 2009
Abstract A molecular valve, consisting of poly(acrylic acid) gel-coated Au mesh, was developed based on volume change of the gel in response to cation concentration. The valve closed when concentration of cations such as H + , Na + , K + , Ca 2+ , Cu 2+ , or Al 3+ was low, whereas opened upon increase in its concentration.

Nanostructured Cellulose II Gel Consisting of Spherical Particles

ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, 2016
Cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) are usually obtained by breaking down the lignocellulosic structure of pulp, i.e., as cellulose I allomorph and according to rather energy-intensive pathways. In contrast to those approaches, TENCEL gel is obtained from a nonfibrous cellulose II precursor directly out of the Lyocell process in a deceptively energy-efficient ...

Hybrid organoids consisting of extracellular matrix gel particles and hepatocytes for transplantation

Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2015
Hepatocyte transplantation is a potential therapy for treating various liver diseases. However, oxygen shortage leading to loss of hepatocyte function becomes a limitation following hepatocyte transplantation. To overcome this problem, we developed a hybrid organoid, consisting of growth factor (GF)-immobilizable gel particles combined with hepatocytes.

Development of a distributed actuation device consisting of soft gel actuator elements

Proceedings. 1998 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (Cat. No.98CH36146), 2002
It is desirable that soft objects like organs are manipulated by soft actuation devices. This paper presents a newly developed device using a large number of actuator elements made of a soft gel material, which applies a distributed driving force on objects.

Anomalous behavior of bimorph consisting of conducting polymer gel in electrochemical doping

Synthetic Metals, 1994
Summary form only given. Recently we have found the gel characteristics in the lightly cross-liked conducting polymers such as poly(3-alkylthiophene). The volume instability of conducting polymer gel has been found by changing solvent composition and temperature and also upon doping.

Dye-sensitized Solar Cells Consisting of CuI-containing Gels

Chemistry Letters, 2006
Abstract CuI-containing gels for dye-sensitized solar cells are reported. CuI-containing gels consist of CuI, methylpropylimidazolium iodide, iodine, and gelators consisting of polyvinylpyridine and tetra(iodomethyl)benzene.
