Effects of seed priming using cold plasma on increasing germination and growth of guar (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba) seeds under salt stress conditions [PDF]
Effects of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) Helium plasma treatments on guar (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba) seed germination and seedling growth were studied. Seeds were pretreated with 0, 1/44 and 0/68 W of cold plasma for 60 s.

Effect of molecular weight on the ability of guar gum to enhance "weak gel" rheology of microdispersed oxidised cellulose (MDOC) [PDF]
MDOC comprises small, essentially insoluble, particles which associate to form “weak gel” networks at concentrations above ∼4 wt%. Association is promoted by guar gum, causing an increase in G′ at low levels of addition and a decrease at higher ...
