Efficient characterization of the physicochemical attributes of bioactive-loaded micro/nano-
vehicles is crucial for the successful product development. The introduction of outstanding …

Investigating plant structure is fundamental in botanical science and provides crucial
knowledge for the theories of plant evolution, ecophysiology and for the biotechnological …

Wood cell walls are naturally fluorescent due to the presence of lignin. Autofluorescence
offers a more specific method for localising lignin than staining and can potentially be used …

Safranine is an azo dye commonly used for plant microscopy, especially as a stain for
lignified tissues such as xylem. Safranine fluorescently labels the wood cell wall, producing …

Spectrofluorometric imaging microscopy is demonstrated in a confocal microscope using a
supercontinuum laser as an excitation source and a custom‐built prism spectrometer for …

The pits on parenchyma cell walls facilitate transfer of liquids between adjacent cells in the
bamboo. To better understand the structure-function relationship of the pits, the structural …

Camellia oleifera Abel. shell (COS) is an agricultural waste in quantities exceeding a million
tons annually. The ultrastructure of the COS cell wall and the distribution of lignocellulose …

Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were
used to investigate the microstructural changes in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) during the …

Fruit cells' shape generally reflects the physiological state and quality of the fruit, and
indirectly dictates its economics. In this study, a new bio-microscope including three …

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from bacterial species have been reported as
plant growth inducers. In this sense, Lactuca sativa was used as model vegetable to …
