Oxidation Chemistry of Catechol Utilized in Designing Stimuli-Responsive Adhesives and Antipathogenic Biomaterials

open access: yesACS Omega, 2021
Mussel foot proteins (Mfps) contain a large amount of the catecholic amino acid, DOPA, allowing the marine organism to anchor themselves onto various surfaces in a turbulent and wet environment.

Catechol thwarts virulent dimorphism in Candida albicans and potentiates the antifungal efficacy of azoles and polyenes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The present study was deliberately focused to explore the antivirulence efficacy of a plant allelochemical—catechol against Candida albicans, and attempts were made to elucidate the underlying mechanisms as well. Catechol at its sub-MIC concentrations (2–

Purification and Characterization of Polyphenol Oxidase in the Fruits of Opuntia ficus-indica

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Firstly, polyphenol oxidase (PPO) was purified from the fruits of Opuntia ficus-indica using Sepharose 4B–L-tyrosine–p-aminobenzoic acid affinity chromatography, and the enzyme was characterized. The PPO was purified 20.59-fold.
