In Vitro Propagation of Periwinkle
Abstract Single node explants from in vitro derived shoots of Vinca minor L. ‘Bowlesii’ were cultured on modified woody plant medium (WPM). A more effective promoter of axillary shoot proliferation was 6-benzylamino purine (BA) than 6-furfurylamino purine (kinetin) or 6-(γ,γ-

A Morphological Characterization of High Yield Chitin from Periwinkle Shells
Research on obtaining chitin from periwinkle shell is scarce due to the very low yield of chitin from this kind of shell. Thisstudy reports a method of processing periwinkle shells to obtain high yield, bio-medically suitable chitin.
