Application

  • Improving drought and salinity tolerance in barley by application of salicylic acid and potassium nitrate: Studies the ameliorative effects of potassium nitrate and salicylic acid on barley, showing improved tolerance to drought and salinity stress (KA Fayez, SA Bazaid, 2014).
  • Prior application of 10% potassium nitrate to reduce post-bleaching sensitivity: a randomized triple-blind clinical trial: Evaluates the use of potassium nitrate in reducing sensitivity post dental bleaching, providing clinical evidence of its effectiveness (M Rezende, KL da Silva, TC Miguel, PV Farago, 2020).
