Antioxidant, Antimicrobial, and Cytotoxic Properties of Essential Oils from the Amazon
Essential oils (EOs) from leaves and branches of Aniba parviflora (Meisn.) Mez were obtained by hydrodistillation and their chemical compositions determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Oxygenated sesquiterpenoids were the most representative

Mosquito and tick repellency of two Anthemis essential oils from Saudi Arabia
The essential oils (EOs) of Anthemis melampodina (Am) and Anthemis scrobicularis (As) (Asteraceae) were extracted from the aerial parts of the plants by hydrodistillation, and their chemical compositions were analyzed using GC-FID and GC-MS.

We have converted the only known true bacterial monoterpene synthase, cineole synthase from Streptomyces clavuligerus (bCinS, C10 substrate), to a highly competent sesquiterpene synthase (C15) with a minimum number of rational mutations. By comparison with diterpene synthases (C20), we were then able to bestow diterpene synthase activity on bCinS. This

Ring Formation in Sesquiterpene Synthesis: Biomimetic vs. Non‐Biomimetic Strategies
A short review of cyclase enzyme‐mediated ring formation in sesquiterpene biosynthesis is presented as a prelude to six case studies examining the merits and demerits of biomimetic vs. non‐biomimetic strategies for carbocyclisation in the total synthesis of this iconic natural product class.

Untargeted metabolomic analysis of the essential oil of D. lanceolata leaves collected in winter revealed that they are mostly composed of sesquiterpenes, while those collected in autumn showed a predominance of monoterpenes. Both essential oils displayed antimicrobial activity against bacterial and fungal species.
