Physiological studies on Morchella species. II. Nitrogen utilization. Kaul, T. N. (Reg. Res. Lab., Srinagar, India). Mushroom J., 58, 328-32 (English) 1977. CODEN: MUSJDK. DOCUMENT TYPE: Journal CA Section: 19 (Fertilizers, Soils, and Plant Nutrition) The growth of nine morel strains, representing six species of Morchella and one of Verpa, on thirty different N compds. was investigated. Asparagine [70-47-3], urea [57-13-6], peptone, glutamic acid [56-86-0], ammonium salts, NaNO2, NaNO3, and KNO3 were good sources of nitrogen for all the species. Hydroxylamine-HCl [5470-11-1] and hydrazine-2HCl [5341-61-7] were not utilized by any of the strains. Intermediate to poor growth was obtained with the rest of the compds. Individual strains varied in their response to specific compds.

Creaseproofing of cellulosic textiles

Creaseproofing of cellulosic textiles. Dziedziela, Wieslaw; Lemanska, Malgorzata (Politechnika Lodzka, Pol.). Pol. PL 122810 B2 31 Jan 1984, 2 pp. (Polish). (Poland). CODEN: POXXA7. CLASS: IC: D06M013-54. APPLICATION: PL 80-228436 11 Dec 1980. DOCUMENT TYPE: Patent CA Section: 40 (Textiles) Fibers, yarns, textiles, or knits contg. 320% cellulose are creaseproofed by impregnation with aq. solns. of N-methylolacrylamide (I) [924-42-5] or N-methylolmethacrylamide [923-02-4], drying, irradn. with ionizing radiation, treatment with an acid catalyst having pH <3, and drying to moisture content ￡30%. The disclosed method eliminates heating of the treated material at >120°, and gives a creaseproof product both in the dry and wet states. Thus, a cotton textile was impregnated with 12% aq. I, dried to 8% moisture content, irradiated with 15 kGy dose of accelerated electrons, impregnated with 1.5% aq. N2H4×2HCl [5341-61-7], dried to 10% moisture content, and rinsed for removal of unreacted compds. The sum of the crease angles (PN-73/P-04737) along the warp and weft of the dry and wet product was 265 and 320°, compared to 100 and 120°, resp., for the unmodified textile.
