Resveratrol: botanical origin, pharmacological activity and applications
Chinese Journal of Natural Medicines, 2013In the past decade, resveratrol, one of the best well-known natural small molecules, has been intensely studied and has shown various promising bioactivities. A growing body of studies point out its potential application and suggest that resveratrol, as a natural product, has highly protective effects on several human diseases, with mild side effects ...

Honey botanical origin determination by electronic nose
Journal of Apicultural Research, 2009Four different honey types (Acacia, Robinia pseudoacacia ; chestnut, Castanea sativa ; lime, Tilia sp. ; sage, Salvia officinalis) from Croatia were analysed using an electronic nose to capture the aroma profile. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN)models were used to determine the botanical origin of honey samples ...

The origin and rarity of botanical carnivory
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1987Most plants are strict producers: they create the biomass consumed by animals and other heterotrophs to sustain life. Occasionally, the tables are turned and the plant becomes predator and the animal prey. Botanical carnivores remind us that some vascular plants have evolved remarkable mechanisms for acquiring key nutrients.

Botanical origin of triterpenoids from Yucatecan propolis
Phytochemistry Letters, 2019Propolis is a resinous material produced by bees from plant exudates; the most common secondary metabolites found in propolis are poliphenolics with different biological activities. Nevertheless, to date, there are a number of reports describing the presence of triterpenoids in propolis.

Indonesian propolis: chemical composition, biological activity and botanical origin
Natural Product Research, 2011From a biologically active extract of Indonesian propolis from East Java, 11 compounds were isolated and identified: four alk(en)ylresorcinols (obtained as an inseparable mixture) (1-4) were isolated for the first time from propolis, along with four prenylflavanones (6-9) and three cycloartane-type triterpenes (5, 10 and 11).

Neural networks applied to discriminate botanical origin of honeys
Food Chemistry, 2015The aim of this work is develop a tool based on neural networks to predict the botanical origin of honeys using physical and chemical parameters. The managed database consists of 49 honey samples of 2 different classes: monofloral (almond, holm oak, sweet chestnut, eucalyptus, orange, rosemary, lavender, strawberry trees, thyme, heather, sunflower) and

Viscous Properties of Thermoplastic Starches from Different Botanical Origin
International Polymer Processing, 2007Abstract Starches from various botanical origins were plasticized in a twin screw extruder with different glycerol contents (from 23 to 32%, total wet basis) in order to prepare pellets of amorphous thermoplastic starches (TPS) that can further be processed for manufacturing purposes.

Botanical origin of Mei-gui Hua in Chinese markets
Journal of Natural Medicines, 2017The petals or buds of Rosa species have been used as an important Chinese crude drug called "Mei-gui Hua" and also an ingredient for herbal tea in China. The 15 flavonol glycosides in 34 commercially available "Mei-gui Hua" were quantitatively determined by UPLC, and the data were compared with those of known Rosa sp. belong to Cinnamomeae, Gallicanae,
