Reactivity with DNA of three pyrenofuran analogues of benzo(a)pyrene and benzo(e)pyrene

Nucleic Acids Research, 1987
Three pyrenofurans, the pyreno[1,2-b]furan (FP1), the pyreno[2,1-b] furan (FP2) and the pyreno[4,5-b]furan (FP3) have been synthesized as analogues of the mutagenic and carcinogenic benzo(a)pyrene (FP1 and FP2) and of its non-carcinogenic isomer benzo(e)pyrene (FP3).

Bioactive compounds in insects—Composition, extraction, functionality, food applications, and safety concerns

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes 94 studies (2000–2025) exploring edible insects as sustainable sources of peptides, lipids, and chitin. Utilizing “green” extraction, these bioactives offer antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits for functional foods. However, addressing safety concerns like allergenicity and heavy metals through standardized frameworks remains ...
