- Abstract
Effect of cadmium cations and their interaction with silicon cations was determined in poplar calli and expressed as changes in callus growth, cell viability and cadmium cation accumulation. Cell viability throughout culture versus cadmium cation accumulation in cells is discussed. At the same time, the study sought appropriate methods for cadmium cation detection in callus cells and also in experiments with low plant material (e.g. protoplasts). Cadmium cations were determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy and using fluorescence microscopy with a specific cadmium cation fluorescent dye. The detection of cadmium cations in callus cells by the latter method appears suitable because the callus cells are surrounded by primary cell walls without auto-fluorescence and these values fit well with atomic absorption spectroscopy quantification. However, the visualisation method has some limits discussed below.
