A procedure is described and evaluated for the analysis of ubiquinone, plastoquinone, tocopherols and vitamin K(1) in Pisum sativum L. Vitamin K(1) appears to be absent from the roots of this plant. While the pea seed contains only gamma-tocopherol, the root and shoot contain only alpha-tocopherol. During the greening of etiolated tissue, plastoquinone and vitamin K(1) levels increase markedly while ubiquinone and alpha-tocopherol levels are unaffected. On homogenization or damage to tissue, considerable losses of alpha-tocopherol occur in the pea plant.
描述并评价了一种分析豌豆中泛醌、质体醌、生育酚和维生素 K(1)的方法。维生素 K(1)似乎不存在于这种植物的根部。尽管豌豆种子只含有γ-生育酚,但根和茎中只含有α-生育酚。在黄化组织的变绿过程中,质体醌和维生素 K(1)水平显著增加,而泛醌和α-生育酚水平不受影响。在豌豆植物的组织匀浆或损伤过程中,α-生育酚会大量损失。
