pH induced tuning of size, charge and viscoelastic behavior of aqueous micellar solution of Pluronic® P104–anthranilic acid mixtures: A scattering, rheology and NMR study
Mehul Khimani,Gunjan Verma,Sugam Kumar,Puthusserickal A. Hassan,Vinod K. Aswal,Pratap Bahadur +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the pH dependence on the influence of anthranilic acid (AA) on P104 micelles was investigated by cloud point, viscosity, dynamic light scattering (DLS), small angle neutron scattering (SANS), nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (NOESY), and rheology.

Simulated Moose ( Alces alces L.) Browsing Increases Accumulation of Secondary Metabolites in Bilberry ( Vaccinium myrtillus L.) Along Gradients of Habitat Productivity and Solar Radiation
Inga-Lill Persson,Riitta Julkunen-Tiitto,Roger Bergström,Märtha Wallgren,Otso Suominen,Kjell Danell +5 more
TL;DR: The content of flavonoids increased with increasing moose density and light, and decreased with increasing habitat productivity, and the higher concentration of secondary metabolites in bilberry from nutrient-poor sites may have resulted from the increased photosynthesis relative to growth, which facilitated secondary metabolism.
Update on Root Exudation and Rhizosphere Biology Root Exudation and Rhizosphere Biology 1
TL;DR: A large body of knowledge suggests that root exudates may act as messengers that communicate and initiate biological and physical interactions between roots and soil organisms.
