LIANG Wu-sheng | PAN Juan
A set of procedure for measuring cyanide content in plant tissues with spectrophotometric method is described in this paper. It involves several steps including absorption, reaction, and light absorptance measurement. The light absorptance of the reaction solutions is measured at the wavelength 550 nm. Using this procedure it is found that the cyanide content is quite low in dried rice (Oryza sativa cv. Xiushui 11) seeds, but increases with the process of seed germination.
