2- (N-morpholine) ethanesulfonic acid monohydrate (MES · H ₂ O, CAS: 145224-94-8), as a classic biological buffer, has been widely used in cell culture, enzyme reactions, and molecular biology experiments for a long time. Its ability to stabilize pH (effective buffer range 5.5-6.7) makes it an indispensable auxiliary reagent in laboratories. However, with the development of agricultural biotechnology, the application scenarios of MES · H ₂ O are gradually extending to the fields. A study on plant aging regulation shows that MES · H ₂ O plays a key supporting role in the formulation of a novel plant aging promoter, demonstrating its potential value in the field of bio agriculture.

The practical needs of plant aging regulation

In agricultural production, the timely aging of plant leaves not only affects the efficiency of nutrient redistribution, but also directly impacts crop yield and quality. For example, in crops such as rapeseed and soybeans that harvest seeds, moderately promoting late stage leaf senescence helps to transfer nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus to the seeds, increasing seed setting rate and thousand grain weight; In facility cultivation or breeding experiments, a controllable aging process can also help unify the harvesting rhythm or accelerate generational replacement. Therefore, developing safe, controllable, and easy-to-use plant aging regulators has practical significance.

Functional positioning of MES · H ₂ O in aging enhancers

Recently, researchers have developed a plant aging promoter with IDA mature peptides as its core. The formula consists of two parts: IDA mature peptide mother liquor and MS liquid culture medium solution containing MES · H ₂ O. The specific preparation method is as follows: first dissolve IDA peptide in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to prepare 10-13mmol/L mother liquor; Add MES · H ₂ O to MS medium, prepare a buffer solution of 2.8-3 mmol/L, and adjust the pH to 5.8-5.9; Finally, add the peptide mother liquor into MES buffer at a volume ratio of 1:1000, mix evenly to obtain the finished product.

In this system, the core function of MES · H ₂ O is not to directly induce aging, but to provide a stable physiological activity environment for IDA peptides. MS culture is a commonly used base solution for plant tissue culture, but its buffering capacity is limited, and pH is prone to fluctuations after dilution or peptide addition. MES · H ₂ O, with its excellent buffering performance in the weak acidic range, can effectively maintain the pH of the solution in the range of 5.8-5.9, which is close to the extracellular environment of plants, thereby ensuring the spatial conformation stability of IDA peptides and their recognition efficiency with receptors.

Application advantages and promotion potential

This aging promoter is easy to prepare, does not require complex equipment, can be directly diluted and used in the field, and has a low operating threshold. More importantly, its components do not contain traditional hormone substances, and its mechanism of action is based on endogenous signaling pathways in plants. It has high safety and is in line with the development direction of green agriculture. As a key auxiliary material, MES · H ₂ O, although used in small quantities, is the foundation for ensuring the stability and repeatability of the entire system.

Conclusion: Reliable raw materials support agricultural technological innovation

The application of MES · H ₂ O in plant aging promoters reflects the "behind the scenes" value of fine chemicals in modern agricultural technology. Although it does not directly exert biological activity, as the "guardian" of the pH environment, it plays a decisive role in the effectiveness of functional molecules. For institutions or enterprises engaged in agricultural biotechnology research and development, choosing MES · H ₂ O raw materials with high purity, low impurities, and stable batches is the key to ensuring experimental reproducibility and product consistency.
