Metabolomic Strategies to Improve Chemical Information from OSMAC Studies of Endophytic Fungi
Metabolomics strategies are important tools to get holistic chemical information from a system, but they are scarcely applied to endophytic fungi to understand their chemical profiles of biosynthesized metabolites. Here Penicillium sp. was cultured using

Comparison of Near Infrared Spectra of Three Lichen Substances and Several Common Synthetic Organic Sunscreens. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Near‐infrared (NIR) and UV radiation have been reported to alter skin physiology, causing oxidative stress, mitochondrial genetic damage, and potentially leading to cancer and photoageing. NIR screening is recommended, but only inorganic sunscreens such as zinc and titanium oxide are known to absorb, reflect, and scatter NIR ...
