Effectiveness of Certain Sterilizing Agents for Seedling Incubation in Radiothymidine

Failure of seed sterilization methods and breakdown in sterile technique can result in catabolism of thymidine by microorganisms during seedling incubation in radioisotope. The effectiveness of some sterilizing agents was monitored by microbiological methods and by thin layer chromatography for the...

description Failure of seed sterilization methods and breakdown in sterile technique can result in catabolism of thymidine by microorganisms during seedling incubation in radioisotope. The effectiveness of some sterilizing agents was monitored by microbiological methods and by thin layer chromatography for the presence of thymidine degradation products. Sodium hypochlorite and ethylene oxide each sterilized pea and sunflower seeds. Sodium hypochlorite failed to sterilize onion seeds while ethylene oxide was only occasionally effective and often retarded germination. Captan, commonly used before germination to prevent fungal blight of seedlings, did not reduce the bacterial flora of onion seeds.
