Gossypol, a phytotoxicant in cotton-seed oil, has been found to sensitize Tb(III)-luminescence in a supramolecular hydrogel. Based on this observation, a paper-based sensor has been developed to detect gossypol with a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.9 nM. This is the first report of water-based detection with the highest sensitivity involving turn-on time-gated luminescence. This method was also able to sense gossypol in commercial crude cotton-seed oil.

Our previous study explored the bacterial endophytic diversity in a certain quantity of mustard seeds using culture dependent method by development of new isolation strategies. No bacterial colony was initially observed in supernatant obtained after centrifugation of mustard seed suspension. This was later overcome by usage of surfactant whereas pellet part showed presence of bacterial colonies on media.
