SUMMARYWork is described on the isolation of wax‐free cuticular membranes by enzymic and chemical treatment, and on the products of hydrolysis of the membranes. Fatty acids in the approximate range C12 to C12 are associated with hydroxylated fatty acids in the apple cutin complex.

SUMMARYA standardized test of permeability to aqueous solutions is described. No diffusion of copper from solutions of copper acetate or sulphate or of mercury from a solution of phenylmercuric acetate occurs through stomata‐free leaf membranes containing 0.1 mg./cm.2 or more of cutin, but diffusion occurs through membranes containing stomata.

Biomechanics of Isolated Plant Cuticles
Botanica Acta, 1998Abstract:The mechanical properties of isolated cuticles of leaves (Yucca aloifolia, Clusia fluminensis, Nerium oleander, Hedera helix) and one fruit (Lycopersicon esculentum) were investigated by means of a tensile test. Samples of the leaves and the fruit were cut to identical size (12.5 × 50 mm) and the cuticles were enzymatically isolated, cleaned ...

Gas permeability of plant cuticles
Planta, 1982Cuticles from the adaxial surface of Citrus aurantium L. leaves and from the pericarp of Lycopersicon esculentum L. and Capsicum annuum L. were isolated enzymatically and their oxygen permeability was determined. Isolated cuticles were mounted between a gaseous and an aqueous compartment with the physiological outer side of the membrane facing the ...

Freeze-fractured cuticles of plants
Plant Science Letters, 1980Abstract When the cuticles of plants are freeze-fractured for electron microscopy, fracture occurs in the plane of the cuticular lamellae such that internal surfaces of the lamellae are revealed. The appearance of cuticular structures revealed in this way corresponds with previous descriptions obtained using thin-sectioning for electron microscopy ...

Scanning electron microscopy of plant cuticles
Journal of Microscopy, 1971SummaryThe scanning electron microscope (SEM) has been used to examine the structure of a wide range of different plant cuticles. The extent to which wax deposits may be damaged by mechanical abrasion in the preparative stage and by the electron probe during the scanning processes has been investigated.
