Abstract

SMJ8 Jeewanu, the autopoetic eukaryote, was prepared under oxygenic conditions and the effect of addition of higher concentration of
mineral solution in the PEM on the colour intensity and the pH of the PEM during the formation of the silicon molybdenum Jeewanu SMJ8 was investigated. It was observed that on exposure to sunlight, the colourless form Mo6+ is changed to blue coloured Mo4+ in the PEM. The blue colour appeared after about 10-15 minutes of exposure. The intensity of the blue colour was measured as absorbance with the help of a double cell photoelectric colorimeter. The pH of the five PEM solutions having different concentrations of mineral solution was measured with the pH meter at different exposure period. The PEM having 12 ml mineral solution showed maximum increasing trend in its pH with increase in its exposure time. The optimum growth of the particles took place in PEM
with 4 ml of mineral solution as the dry weight of the particles of this solution as well as the number of the particles in this PEM which had 4 ml mineral solution was maximum. Maximum size was also observed in the Jeewanu of this PEM. The colorimetric readings also show optimum growth in the PEM with 4 m1 mineral solution as indicated by the maximum blue colour intensity shown by it.
