[Le cyprès] est l'une des plantes médicinales le plus anciennement connues : on le trouve mentionné dans un écrit assyrien vieux de 35 siècles. [...] Outre un taux élevé de tanin, le cyprès renferme une huile essentielle très aromatique avec laquelle les Romains faisaient des parfums. L'ensemble de ses composants en fait avant tout une plante vasoconstrictrice. 2, record 1, French, - cypr%C3%A8s

L'intensité respiratoire se mesure par le volume d'oxygène absorbé ou de gaz carbonique dégagé par la plante pendant un temps donné, par gramme de substance sèche.

Il a été démontré que le métabolisme du champignon de Paris ne suit pas une cinétique michaelienne. Pour tous les végétaux testés le CO2, jusqu'à 20 kPa, ne modère pas l'intensité respiratoire et même, dans le cas du champignon, semble l'activer. L'équipe vient de démontrer que de nouveaux matériaux d'enrobage et de filmage (biofilms et films polymériques de synthèse hydrophiles) présentent, d'une part, une haute sélectivité aux gaz permettant la création de toute atmosphère modifiée à l'équilibre telle que (O2)+(CO2) <21kPa et, d'autre part, un Q10 de la perméabilité au gaz carbonique voisin de celui de la respiration des végétaux. 3, record 8, French, - intensit%C3%A9%20respiratoire
