6-BA, as the first artificially synthesized cytokinin, has a wide range of applications in the agricultural field. One of its major features is that it can inhibit the decomposition of chlorophyll, nucleic acid and protein in plant leaves, thereby achieving the effect of keeping green and preventing aging.
In terms of mechanism, 6-BA is a broad-spectrum plant growth regulator. It can promote the growth of plant cells, maintain the stability of chlorophyll, increase the amino acid content, and thus delay the aging process of leaves. In the cultivation of bean sprouts, such as mung bean sprouts and soybean sprouts, it is recommended to induce bud differentiation, promote the growth of lateral buds, and promote cell division. In addition, 6-BA also has the effect of slowing down the decomposition of chlorophyll, showing significant anti-aging and greening functions, ensuring the healthy growth of plants.
