A tetrazolium or TZ test is a common laboratory technique used to determine seed viability. During a TZ test, imbibed seeds are placed in a solution and respiring tissues stain red while non-respiring tissues remain partially stained or unstained.
SEED TESTING. The main objective of seed testing is to assess the actual planting value of the seed in terms of its germination capacity besides determination of percentage composition of the pure seeds, weed seeds, other crop species, extraneous matter and moisture content of the submitted sample.
Seeds are placed on one or more layers of moist filter paper or blotter paper in petriplates. These petriplates are covered with lid and placed inside the germination cabinet. This is suitable for those seeds which require light. The seeds are germinated between two layers of paper.
Physical purity testing refers to the analysis for classifying the composition of a seed lot. It is important for evaluating whether the given seed sample conforms to the prescribed purity standards; and whether it can truly represent the seed lot. Ideally, the working sample should roughly contain at least 2500 seeds.
