“…To determine the phytostimulant potential of the protein-based gels GHC 1-B, GHC 2-B, and GHC 3-B by applying the germination bioassay, commercial seeds of tomato, variety ACE55VF, and pepper seeds, variety Alexandru were used. The method used was modified and adapted according to the procedures reported by researchers Mitelut , and Popa [17], Ghayal et al [49], and Perisoara et al [50]. All three protein gel variants were studied at concentrations of 1%, 3%, and 10%, diluted with distilled water, and the results obtained were compared to the negative control, which contains distilled water.…”
