Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graecum) gum: A functional ingredient with promising properties and applications in food and pharmaceuticals—A review

open access: yesLegume Science, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graecum) is an annual plant belonging to the family Leguminosae or Fabaceae. The seeds of fenugreek contain 26.8% soluble fiber chemically identified as galactomannans with properties similar to soluble fiber of guar seeds and psyllium husk and so on. Galactomannans are biopolymers consisting of linear core poly (1,

The best of two worlds: ecology and evolution of ambophilous plants

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 391-420, April 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Ambophily, the mixed mode of wind and insect pollination is still poorly understood, even though it has been known to science for over 130 years. While its presence has been repeatedly inferred, experimental data remain regrettably rare. No specific suite of morphological or ecological characteristics has yet been identified for ambophilous ...

Caesalpinia Spinosa Tannin Derivatives for Antifouling Formulations

open access: yesProcedia Materials Science, 2012
AbstractAF coatings prevent the undesirable accumulation of a wide variety of marine organisms (biofouling) on ship hulls can lead to significant increased costs, principally by increased fuel consumption. The bioactive compounds (biocides) used in antifouling coatings, like tributyltin (TBT), are banned for their toxic action towards non-target marine

The anti‐Trypanosoma activities of medicinal plants: A systematic review of the literature

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 2738-2772, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The existing drug treatments for trypanosomiases are limited and suffer from shortcomings due to their toxicity and the emergence of resistant parasites. Developing anti‐trypanosomal compounds based on natural products is a promising way of fighting trypanosomiases.
