NATURAL PLANT VITALIZER HB-101
About HB-101.
HB-101 is a natural plant growth enhancer which increases plant productivity by promoting theplant cell proliferation, activating a mitochondrial enzyme ofthe plant and increases the number of useful microorganisms
in the soil. HB-101 is not fertilizers, agricultural chemicals
and hormone preparations. HB-101 is applied as both foliage
and soil and is effective on all types of crops and trees, andin most soil conditions. HB-101 is completely non-toxic
extract of natural plants and trees and will not harm animals
or the environment.

Raw materials of HB-101.
Ceders, Cypresses, Pines and Plantains grass are the raw materials used in the manufacturing ofHB-101. Extracts from these plants and trees are refined and blended to produce a highly
concentrated formula beneficial to virtually all phases of plant propagation. Ceders, Cypresses andPines are long-lived trees with powerful deodorizing and bacteria-suppressing power. The saps andsecondary metabolites of these trees are responsible for maintain the health and longevity of thesetrees, repelling harmful invaders andprotecting against disease. Plantains grass
are known to have medical properties, andhave long been used in various human
medications.

Physical data of HB-101.
External appearance and so on; Colorless transparent liquid (according to the season of gathering
materials, it often happens that a little pale-yellow transparent liquid is extracted.), Specific gravity;
1.000 ~ 1.050, pH; 3.0 ~ 4.5, EC; 0.1 ~ 0.5 ds / m, Solubility; High water solubility, Smell; Sweet
smell

Typical analysis of HB-101.
Kaempferol; 0.1 ~ 0.2 ppm
Water-Soluble Nitrogen (as N); 0.001 ~ 0.005 %, Water-Soluble Phosphoric Acid (as P2O5); 0.0001

~ 0.0005 %, Water-Soluble Potassium (as K2O); 0.0001 ~ 0.0005 %, Total Sulfur (as S); 0.0001 ~0.001 %, Calcium (Ca); 0.5 ~ 3 ppm, Magnesium (Mg); 0.3 ~ 3 ppm, Iron (Fe); 0.01 ~ 0.05 ppm,Zinc (Zn); 0.01 ~ 0.05 ppm, Silicon (Si); 1 ~ 5 ppm

Effect of HB-101.
・Measurement of density of kaempferol in HB-101.
The amount of thekaempferol
included in HB101 was examinedby HPLC, it was0.1 ~ 0.2 ppm.

・Activation of mitochondrial enzyme of plant culture cell by kaempferol.

The kaempferol included in HB-101 was purified and it added to the plant culture
cell. And the mitochondrial enzyme activity of the cultured cells were measured by
MTT assay. As a result, it was suggested that a mitochondrial enzyme was activated.

・Proliferative effect of kaempferol on plant culture cell.

The kaempferol included in
HB-101 was purified and it
added to the plant culturecell.
As a result, the proliferationof the cultured cell waspromoted.

・An increase of plant root biomass by HB-101.

Arabidopsis thaliana was grown on the medium that contained HB-101 or not. As aresult, the biomass of the root of the Arabidopsis thaliana grown with the medium
including HB-101 has increased.

・An increase of useful microorganism in soil by HB-101.

The change of the microorganism in the soil was examined adding HB-101. As a result, aremarkable increase of the protozoa amoeba was observed. The protozoa amoeba can supply
the nitrogen source that the plant can be used to the soil. Therefore, it is thought that theapplication of HB-101 to the soil is effective to be able to supply an unused nutrient to theplant.

As mentioned above, HB-101 shows the useful effect in the plant and the soil.
