Osmotic induced stimulation of the reduction of the viability dye 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride by maize roots and callus cultures
Live cells can reduce colorless 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) to a red insoluble compound, formazan. Maize (Zea mays) callus, when osmotically stressed by 0.53 mol/L mannitol, produced 7-times or more formazan than untreated control callus. This result was seen with all osmotica tested a...
