Leaf-applied sodium chloride promotes cadmium accumulation in durum wheat grain [PDF]
Cadmium (Cd) accumulation in durum wheat grain is a growing concern. Among the factors affecting Cd accumulation in plants, soil chloride (Cl) concentration plays a critical role.

Self-Lifting NaCl Crystals [PDF]
We show that macroscopic crystals of NaCl that form from evaporating drops of aqueous salt solutions can spontaneously lift themselves up and away from a hydrophobic surface. At the end of the evaporation process, tiny crystals of NaCl grow onto larger ones and form "legs" that push the large crystals away from the surface.

NaCl transport stimulates prostaglandin release in cultured renal epithelial (MDCK) cells [PDF]
Prostaglandins (PGs) can modulate a variety of renal functions, including Na+ and Cl- reabsorption. However, it is not known if a direct interdependence exists between PG synthesis and transport activity. The present study was done to find out whether or

Compositional controls on melting and dissolving a salt into a ternary melt [PDF]
We explore theoretically the controls on dissolution of salt A, in an undersaturated brine of salts A and B. We show that, as the concentration of B increases, the dissolution rate of A decreases, for brine of given temperature.

An electrochemical prototype (ECP) was developmed and evaluated to determine NaCl electrical variables [volt (V), ampere (A), resistance (R) and power (P)] and its use in fresh cheeses. The ECP circuit consisted of two electrodes, an aluminum (anode) and

The accumulation of K+, Ca2+, Na+ and P in Sinapis nigra L. grown in the presence of NaCl and silicon [PDF]
Saline stress is recognized as one of the most important abiotic stresses for plants in some regions of the world. Recent studies showed that silicon (Si) can play an important role in plant resistance to environmental conditions, such as ...

Impact of short-term extreme temperature events on physiological performance of Salicornia ramosissima J. Woods under optimal and sub-optimal saline conditions [PDF]
Increasing extreme temperature climatic events could exert an important effect on plant photosynthetic performance, which could be modulated by the co-occurrence with other environmental factors, such as salinity, in estuarine ecosystems.
