Alpha-amylase inhibition kinetics by caulerpenyne
Many algae have important secretions which are generally used for defensive purposes. These secretions take attentions of a lot of researchers who are wondering if these metabolites can be used for medical researches or not. Among these metabolites, caulerpenyne (CYN) which is the main metabolite of Caulerpa species, have had an important place in ...
