Comparação de métodos diretos de extração e quantificação dos teores de clorofilas em folhas do capim-Tifton 85

Abstract: This study aimed to assess which is the most appropriate protocol for extraction of chlorophylls a, b and total (a + b) to be applied in studies with Tifton 85 (Cynodon spp.) forage grass. Results revealed that, based on total (a + b)chlorophyll contents, the best extractors were N,Ndimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide and acetone 80% (using the equations proposed by ARNON, 1949). Temporal changes in the concentrations of chlorophyll a, b and total were well described by a hyperbolic model common to all solven… Show more

“…The absorbances were measured at 470, 647, and 663 nm, and chlorophyll a and b concentrations were calculated through the equations proposed by Barbieri Junior et al (2010). Free proline was quantified using 0.1g of fresh leaf tissue assessed by the method developed by Bates et al (1973).…”

“…Acetone is not suitable for field work due to volatility, propensity to leak from containers, flammability and despite the best results observed, it is permissible to lose a certain precision and use another method under field conditions, when it involves the comparison of a high number of treatments and repetitions (Ritchie, 2008;Barbieri Junior et al, 2010). Protocols, where part of the plant tissue is immersed in a solvent, are recommended due to the practicality, the possibility of preparing a large number of samples in a short time.…”

“…Chlorophylls and carotenoids contents can be obtained by extraction with organic solvents (Silva et al 2014) and there are several methodologies already elucidated for the extraction of these pigments in diverse vegetal species, as the use of ethanol (Wintermans andDe Mots 1965, Lichtenthaler 1987), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) (Moran 1982, Wellburn 1994, 80% acetone and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) ( Barnes et al 1992, Wellburn 1994. However, there are considerable variations in the extraction of pigments, depending on the methodology used being that the main sources of variation include: (i) nature, polarity and purity degree of the solvent; (ii) temperature and incubation/extraction time; and (iii) the equations used, which must be specific to the different solvents (Porra et al 1989, Tait and Hik 2003, Ritchie 2008, Barbieri Junior et al 2010. In addition, the species is an important source of variation regarding the extraction methodology of photosynthetic pigments, since the contents of these compounds diversifies according to the organisms.…”
