  2. Cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_wall

    The primary cell wall of most plant cells is freely permeable to small molecules including small proteins, with size exclusion estimated to be 30-60 kDa. [13] The pH is an important factor governing the transport of molecules through cell walls.

  3. List of vaccine excipients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_vaccine_excipients

    Vaccine Excipients Adenovirus vaccine: This list refers to the type 4 and type 7 adenovirus vaccine tablets licensed in the US: Acetone, alcohol, anhydrous lactose, castor oil, cellulose acetate phthalate, dextrose, D-fructose, D-mannose, FD&C Yellow #6 aluminium lake dye, fetal bovine serum, human serum albumin, magnesium stearate, micro crystalline cellulose, plasdone C, Polacrilin potassium ...

  4. Plasmodesma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasmodesma

    Neighbouring plant cells are therefore separated by a pair of cell walls and the intervening middle lamella, forming an extracellular domain known as the apoplast. Although cell walls are permeable to small soluble proteins and other solutes , plasmodesmata enable direct, regulated, symplastic transport of substances between cells.

  5. Extracellular matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracellular_matrix

    The components of the glycoprotein matrix help cell walls of adjacent plant cells to bind to each other. The selective permeability of the cell wall is chiefly governed by pectins in the glycoprotein matrix. Plasmodesmata (singular: plasmodesma) are pores that traverse the cell walls of adjacent plant cells. These channels are tightly regulated ...

  6. Vaccine ingredients - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccine_ingredients

    A vaccine dose contains many ingredients (such as stabilizers, adjuvants, residual inactivating ingredients, residual cell culture materials, residual antibiotics and preservatives) very little of which is the active ingredient, the immunogen. A single dose may have merely nanograms of virus particles, or micrograms of bacterial polysaccharides.

  7. Secondary cell wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_cell_wall

    Secondary cell walls provide additional protection to cells and rigidity and strength to the larger plant. These walls are constructed of layered sheaths of cellulose microfibrils, wherein the fibers are in parallel within each layer. The inclusion of lignin makes the secondary cell wall less flexible and less permeable to water than the ...

  8. Lignin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lignin

    The polysaccharide components of plant cell walls are highly hydrophilic and thus permeable to water, whereas lignin is more hydrophobic. The crosslinking of polysaccharides by lignin is an obstacle for water absorption to the cell wall. Thus, lignin makes it possible for the plant's vascular tissue to conduct water efficiently. [15]

  9. Hypersensitive response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypersensitive_response

    Hypersensitive response (HR) is a mechanism used by plants to prevent the spread of infection by microbial pathogens.HR is characterized by the rapid death of cells in the local region surrounding an infection and it serves to restrict the growth and spread of pathogens to other parts of the plant.
