A study was done to relate the in vivo reduction of nitrate to nitrate uptake, nitrate accumulation, and induction of nitrate reductase activity in intact barley seedlings (Hordeum vulgare L. var. ;Nu...
The cytoplasmic NO(3) (-) concentration ([NO(3) (-)](c)) was estimated for roots of barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv Klondike) using a technique based on measurement of in vivo nitrate reductase activity...
Cultures of Lemna gibba L. G3 were maintained at a constant, N-limited growth rate by adding nitrate daily in amounts calculated to sustain a rate of culture N increment of 0.20 day(-1). Nitrate added...
Cell suspensions of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L., cv KY14) were used to determine the responses of NO3- uptake and NO3- reductase activity (NRA) to exogenous NO3- levels in the absence of long-distan...
Nitrate signalling on the nitrate reductase (Nia1) gene promoter from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has been studied by using a construct of the Nia1 promoter transcriptionally fused to the Chlamydomonas ...
Nitrate reductase (NR) activity in spinach leaf extracts prepared in the presence of a protein phosphatase inhibitor (50 microM cantharidine) was measured in the presence of Mg2+ (NRact) or EDTA (NRma...
It was demonstrated that nitrate concentration fluctuates dramatically in both urine and saliva throughout the study period and hence single time point ('spot') samples of either fluid give a poor mea...
It is important to have a reliable method of assessing the dietary nitrate exposure of populations for a proper understanding of the potential health effects of the endogenous metabolites of this ion ...
