Development of theoretical installation for the study of electroplasmolysis of cereal cultures

Abstract

This work is devoted to the development of an effective and safe experimental setup for the study of electroplasmolysis of grain crops. The process of electroplasmolization includes the effect of electric current on the cellular structures of plants, which can lead to the rupture of cell membranes and changes in the internal structure of cells. The experimental setup includes a regulated power source, thyristors, a measuring shunt, an oscilloscope, and working electrodes. Analysis of the results of the experiment using a biological microscope and a digital camera confirms the presence of electroplasmolysis and its effect on cell membranes. The obtained results indicate an increased permeability of membranes and a positive effect on the quality and germination of grain. The developed installation is promising for further research in the field of electroplasmolysis of grain crops.
