Tamilnadu Test House provides the testing of Plant Growth Hormones in the Biofertilizers

Tamilnadu Test House provides the testing of Plant Growth Hormones in Biofertilizers. The development of plants depends on three main factors: environmental factors, nutritional requirements, and plant growth hormones.

The growth hormones are the essential regulators of growth, differentiation, and development in plants. They have an important role as signaling molecules and any changes in the concentration of these molecules mediate several developmental responses, including responses in combination with environmental factors and stress responses.

Plant growth hormones are defined as a group of naturally occurring, organic substances which influence physiological processes at low concentrations. They are also termed plant growth regulators or phytohormones

Plant Growth Hormones

The plant produces a wide range of growth hormones but some of the well-known and well-studied include auxin, cytokinin, gibberellins, abscisic acids, ethylene, brassinosteroids, polyamines, jasmonic acids, salicylic acids, and strigolactones.
Auxins stimulate cell division in the cambium. In tissue culture, it serves the same purpose when used in combination with cytokinin.
Cytokinin causes crown gall tumors in plants. And, in tissue culture, it induces cell division in combination with auxin.
Gibberellins cause hyper-elongation of stems by stimulating both cell division and cell elongation.
An increase in ABA concentration due to water shortage leads to stomatal closure.
Ethylene is responsible for triple response in plants. That is, before soil emergence, dark-grown seedlings display a decrease in stem elongation, a thickening of the stem, and a transition to lateral growth.

What is Animal Feed testing ?

Animal feed testing labs in Chennai analyze samples of animal feed to assess their nutritional composition, quality, and safety. Here's an overview of the process involved in animal feed testing: Sample Collection: The first step is to collect representative samples of the animal feed to be tested. Samples should be collected following proper sampling procedures to ensure accuracy and reliability. Preparation of Samples: Once collected, the samples may need to be prepared or homogenized to ensure uniformity and consistency. This may involve grinding, mixing, or sub-sampling the feed samples as needed. Selection of Testing Parameters: Depending on the specific requirements and objectives of the testing, various parameters may be analyzed, including: Nutritional Composition: This includes testing for moisture content, protein content, fat content, fiber content, carbohydrate content, and mineral content. Contaminants : Testing may be conducted to detect contaminants such as afla

How do you analyze asbestos?

Analyzing asbestos typically involves laboratory testing to determine the presence of asbestos fibers in a sample. Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring minerals that are widely used in construction and other industries due to their heat resistance and durability. However, asbestos poses serious health risks, and its use is now heavily regulated or banned in many countries. Here are the general steps involved in analyzing asbestos: Sample Collection: Samples need to be collected from the suspected material or area. Common sources include building materials like insulation, ceiling tiles, floor tiles, and pipe insulation. Ensure that the person collecting the sample follows proper safety procedures, including wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to avoid exposure. Preparation of Samples: The collected samples are prepared for analysis. This may involve techniques such as crushing, grinding, or other methods to release the asbestos fibers from the material.
