Plant Hormone Detection

Plant hormones are organic compounds produced in plants that can regulate their own physiological processes. It is known that there are six types of hormones produced in plants, namely auxin, gibberellin, cytokinin, abscisic acid, ethylene and brassinosteroid. They are simple small molecular organic compounds, but their physiological effects are very complex and diverse. The functions pf plant hormones are from affecting cell division, elongation and differentiation to affecting plant germination, rooting, flowering, fruit setting, sex determination, dormancy and shedding. Therefore, plant hormones play an important role in regulating plant growth and development.

Creative Biogene has established HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) platform to realize the quantitative and qualitative analysis of multiple types of plant hormones. 95% of the substances involved are quantified using standard products and isotope standards.

Application of Plant Hormone Detection

Plant hormones are active substances that are induced by plant cells under specific environmental signals and can regulate plant physiological responses at low concentrations. Plant hormones regulate plant growth and differentiation in cell division and elongation, tissue and organ differentiation, flowering and fruiting, maturation and senescence, dormancy and germination, and in vitro tissue cultures respectively or coordinately. Plant hormone detection is often used in the field of agriculture, including research on plant anti-stress mechanisms, growth and development mechanisms, and breeding protection.
