TL;DR: The percent GS3 content of the seed oil and of its interesterified product have been determined by the combined techniques of thin layer chromatography on silver nitrate impregnated silica gel and colorimetry.
Abstract: Corchorus olitorius seed oil and its randomised product have been subjected to pancreatic hydrolysis. Glyceride compositions have been calculated from the original fatty acid composition and those of the monoglycerides produced by hydrolysis. The percent GS3 content of the seed oil and of its interesterified product have also been determined by the combined techniques of thin layer chromatography on silver nitrate impregnated silica gel and colorimetry.

TL;DR: In this paper, three varieties of jute (C. capsularis, b. olitorius and b. ternaris), which yield commercial fibers, were irradiated with different doses of x-rays ranging from 10kR to 100kR at 10 kR intervals.
Abstract: Dry dormant seeds of three varieties of jute (C. capsularis & b. olitorius), which yield commercial fibers, were irradiated with different doses of x-rays ranging from 10 kR to 100 kR at 10 kR intervals. The percentage of germination, survival rates, the resulting morphological abnormalities in different generations, the total abnormalities, the total mutation frequency including chlorophyll mutations, and the complete, mutation spectrum are described in detail. Mutations were classified into different groups and each mutant was briefly described. Several directly useful mutations were observed with emphasis on the fiber yield. Interesting results were obtained after crossing mutants, where the first high yielding hybrid was evolved by the senior author. (auth)
