Morris Key Report on Beneficial Alcohol to Root Systems Scientists • Engineers • Technologists May 31, 2013 Beneficial Alcohols Alcohols in RainDrops are beneficial in providing soil-root systems with moisture for plant respiration and nutrient transport1. These alcohols are beneficial to the soil-root system in a number of ways, as described elsewhere2. Although the generic term alcohol includes certain specific types of alcohol that could be detrimental, there are many beneficial alcohols that find application in agriculture, cosmetics, foods, and medicines.3,4 The specific alcohols used in RainDrops belong to this beneficial group. For example, polyalcohol hydrogels are beneficially used in agriculture; sugar alcohols are used in Atkins diet shakes, and are used as substitutes for sugars in chewing gums and baked goods; polyalcohols (PEG) are used as pharmacologically inactive ingredients in medications; the waxy alcohols such as cetearyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol are used in cosmetics5. These are referred to as ‘fatty alcohols’ and are waxy types of alcohols commonly used as emulsifiers and thickeners in skin creams. They are non-drying and moisturizing on the skin, as opposed to other alcohols, such as ethyl and isopropyl alcohols that cause drying of the skin. Thus, it is clear that the term alcohol is positive or negative as a function of the type and use. The dynamic efficiency of RainDrops derives from the fact that, at use-dilution, so few alcohol molecules are required to carry, hold, and then transfer as required, relatively large amounts of water in close proximity to the plant-root system. Small numbers are efficacious due to the quasi- catalytic nature of the specific alcohol molecules. A single oxiranyl alcohol molecule can slip down through the soil carrying a few trihydric alcohol molecules and water to the root zone. The trihydric alcohol molecules hold water via hydrogen bonding and release water molecules and Page 2 of 5 1 Parkin TB, Doran JW, and Franco-Vizcaíno E. 1996.

Such transfer processes are energetically driven by osmotic pressure or active transport.6 Plants transport soluble nutrients across cell membranes against concentration gradients to create a low water potential, i.e., active transport produces a cell deficient in water. Water then moves from soil into the root due to this osmotic potential to dilute the cellular concentration of soluble nutrients. The same molecules repeat this process many times, explaining the low dosage requirement for RainDrops to provide its beneficial role. In summary, the alcohols in RainDrops are beneficial to soil-root systems by utilizing very small numbers of oxiranyl and trihydric alcohol molecules to penetrate the soil, carrying, holding, and transferring water and nutrients to the root system on demand.

Can accumulate to toxic levels. http://soils.usda.gov/sqi/assessment/files/respiration_sq_biological_indicator_sheet.pdf Carbon dioxide (CO2) release from the soil surface is referred to as soil respiration. This CO2 results from several sources, including aerobic microbial decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) to obtain energy for their growth and functioning (microbial respiration), plant root and faunal respiration, and eventually from the dissolution of carbonates in soil solution. Soil respiration is one measure of biological activity and decomposition. The rate of CO2 release is expressed as CO2-C lbs/acre/day (or kg/ha/d). It can be measured by simple field methods (e.g. fig. 1) or more sophisticated field and laboratory methods. During the decomposition of SOM, organic nutrients contained in organic matter (e.g., organic phosphorus, nitrogen, and sulfur) are converted to inorganic forms that are available for plant uptake. This conversion is known as mineralization. Soil respiration is also known as carbon mineralization. ibid Chemical fertilizer may stimulate root growth and nourish microbes; however, at high concentrations, some fertilizers can become harmful to microbes responsible for soil respiration because of changes in pH and their potential toxicity. Similarly, organic amendments with high concentrations of heavy metals, as well as pesticides and fungicides, may be toxic to microbial populations leading to reduced microbial diversity, abundance, and respiration. ibid Soil respiration is measured using the Draeger-Tube® method described in the Soil Quality Test Kit Guide, Chapter 2, p 4 - 6. See Section II, Chapter 1, p 52 - 54 for interpretation of results. ibid educed soil respiration rates indicate that there is little or no SOM or aerobic microbial activity in the soil. It may also signify that soil properties that contribute to soil respiration (soil temperature, moisture, aeration, available N) are limiting biological activity and SOM decomposition. With reduced soil respiration, nutrients are not released from SOM to feed plants and soil organisms. This affects plant root respiration, which can result in the death of the plants. Incomplete mineralization of SOM often occurs in saturated or flooded soils, resulting in the formation of compounds that are harmful to plant roots, (e.g. methane and alcohol). In such anaerobic environments, denitrification and sulfur volatilization usually occur, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions and acid deposition.

SuA sugar alcohol (also known as a polyol,[1] polyhydric alcohol, polyalcohol, or glycitol) is a hydrogenated form of carbohydrate, whosecarbonyl group (aldehyde or ketone, reducing sugar) has been reduced to a primary or secondary hydroxyl group (hence the alcohol). Sugar alcohols have the general formula H(HCHO)n+1H, whereas sugars have H(HCHO)nHCO. In commercial foodstuffs sugar alcohols are commonly used in place of table sugar (sucrose), often in combination with high intensity artificial sweeteners to counter the low sweetness. Of these, xylitol is perhaps the most popular due to its similarity to sucrose in visual appearance and sweetness.

  • Sweet Sensations by Judie Bizzozero | Senior Editor
    [Confections] July 2015 Sweet Sensations By Judie Bizzozero | Senior Editor By R.J. Foster, Contributing Editor For many, terms like “reduced-sugar” or “sugar-free” do not go with the word “candy.” And yet, the confectionery industry is facing growing demand for treats that offer the taste people have grown to love without the adverse health effects they’re looking to avoid. Thankfully, there is a growing palette of ingredients from which candy makers can paint a new picture of sweetness that will be appreciated by the even most discerning of confectionery critics. SUGAR ALCOHOLS Also referred to as polyols, sugar alcohols are a common ingredient in reduced-sugar and sugar-free applications, especially confections. Funny thing, they’re not sugars or alcohols. Carbohydrate chains composed of monomeric, dimeric and polymeric units, polyols resemble both sugars and alcohols, but do not contain an ethanol molecule. All but two sugar alcohols are less sweet than sugar. Being only partially digestible, though, replacing a portion of a formulation’s sugar with a sugar alcohol reduces total calories without losing bulk (which can occur when replacing sugar with high-intensity sweeteners). Unique flavoring, texturizing and moisture-controlling effects also make polyols well-suited for confectionery products. Two very common and very similar monomeric polyols are sorbitol and mannitol. Present in a variety of fruits and vegetables, both are derived from products of cornstarch hydrolysis. Sorbitol is made via hydrogenation of glucose, which is why sorbitol is sometimes referred to as glucitol. Mannitol is created when fructose hydrogenation converts fructose into mannose, for which the final product, mannitol, is named.

  • Sugar Alcohols a Sugar Alcohol Is a Kind of Alcohol Prepared from Sugars
    Sweeteners, Good, Bad, or Something even Worse. (Part 8) These are Low calorie sweeteners - not non-calorie sweeteners Sugar Alcohols A sugar alcohol is a kind of alcohol prepared from sugars. These organic compounds are a class of polyols, also called polyhydric alcohol, polyalcohol, or glycitol. They are white, water-soluble solids that occur naturally and are used widely in the food industry as thickeners and sweeteners. In commercial foodstuffs, sugar alcohols are commonly used in place of table sugar (sucrose), often in combination with high intensity artificial sweeteners to counter the low sweetness of the sugar alcohols. Unlike sugars, sugar alcohols do not contribute to the formation of tooth cavities. Common Sugar Alcohols Arabitol, Erythritol, Ethylene glycol, Fucitol, Galactitol, Glycerol, Hydrogenated Starch – Hydrolysate (HSH), Iditol, Inositol, Isomalt, Lactitol, Maltitol, Maltotetraitol, Maltotriitol, Mannitol, Methanol, Polyglycitol, Polydextrose, Ribitol, Sorbitol, Threitol, Volemitol, Xylitol, Of these, xylitol is perhaps the most popular due to its similarity to sucrose in visual appearance and sweetness. Sugar alcohols do not contribute to tooth decay. However, consumption of sugar alcohols does affect blood sugar levels, although less than that of "regular" sugar (sucrose). Sugar alcohols may also cause bloating and diarrhea when consumed in excessive amounts. Erythritol Also labeled as: Sugar alcohol Zerose ZSweet Erythritol is a sugar alcohol (or polyol) that has been approved for use as a food additive in the United States and throughout much of the world.
