To Investigate the Effect of Electromagnetic Radiations on Flavonoids of Lettuce Species

" The present research can be concluded that the cell phones radiations affects the morphological parameters in romaine lettuce and cause increase in the seedling length, fresh weight and dry weight whereas it causes reduction in the germination rate, shoot length, root length and leaf length (Table 1-6). The Rf (retention factor) value was compared with the control and that increased in irradiated samples at different exposure time (Table 8). It also resulted in the increase in concentration of flavonoids which were evaluated by the spectrophotometric analysis and it was observed that the absorbance rate was high in the irradiated samples as compare to the control samples (Fig 3 and Table 9). It can be noted that by exposure to the cell phone radiations there was increase in the concentration of flavonoids (Table 7)." {Credits 1}
