Sodium silicate is a water-soluble silicate. Sodium silicate is widely used as a binder, particularly in the production of detergents, soaps, and cleaners. Sodium silicate promotes the deposition of suberin polyphenols and lignin at wound sites of potato tubers, accelerates callus structure formation, enhances ROS production, and induces the synthesis of total phenols and flavonoids. Sodium silicate reduces the weight loss rate and disease index of wounded potato tubers during storage.

Description

Sodium silicate is a water-soluble silicate. Sodium silicate is widely used as a binder, particularly in the production of detergents, soaps, and cleaners. Sodium silicate promotes the deposition of suberin polyphenols and lignin at wound sites of potato tubers, accelerates callus structure formation, enhances ROS production, and induces the synthesis of total phenols and flavonoids. Sodium silicate reduces the weight loss rate and disease index of wounded potato tubers during storage[1].

In Vitro

Sodium silicate (50 mM; 3 mins) promotes wound healing in wounded 'Atlantic' potato tubers, reducing weight loss by 32% and disease index by 28% relative to controls after 14 days of healing[1].
Sodium silicate (50 mM; 3 mins) promotes the deposition of suberin polyphenolic and lignin in wounded 'Atlantic' potato tubers, increasing their respective cell layer thicknesses by 46% and 34% relative to controls after 7 days of healing[1].
Sodium silicate (50 mM; 3 mins) induces the expression levels and enzyme activity of PAL, 4CL, and CAD[1].
Sodium silicate (50 mM; 3 min immersion) promotes the expression of StPOD and StNOX and the accumulation of ROS species in wounded 'Atlantic' potato tubers, with day 7 H2O2 and O2 levels being 45% and 5% to controls[1].
Sodium silicate (50 mM; 3 min immersion) promotes the production of antimicrobial compounds in wounded 'Atlantic' potato tubers, increasing total phenolics by 25% and flavonoids by 18% relative to controls after 7 days of healing[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
