Therapeutic Applications of Terpenes on Inflammatory Diseases
In the last decades, the search for natural products with biological applications as alternative treatments for several inflammatory diseases has increased. In this respect, terpenes are a family of organic compounds obtained mainly from plants and trees,

Molecular Cloning and Expression Analysis of a Putative Terpene Synthase Gene from Citrus [PDF]
A cDNA coding for a putative terpene synthase ( Grtps ) was isolated from `Rio Red' grapefruit ( Citrus paradisi Macf.) mature fruit by differential display RT-PCR and the corresponding full-length cDNA and genomic clone were subsequently obtained.

Genotoxicity of citrus wastewater in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and efficiency of heterogeneous photocatalysis by TiO2 [PDF]
The presence of (±)a-pinene, (+)b-pinene, (+)3-carene, and R-(+)limonene terpenes in wastewater of a citrus transformation factory was detected and analyzed, in a previous study, by using Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) followed by GC analyses ...

Simultaneous Hydrodistillation-Steam Distillation of Rosmarinus officinalis, Lavandula angustifolia and Citrus aurantium from Morocco, Major Terpenes: Impact on Biological Activities [PDF]
Interest in the use of essential oils (EOs) in the biomedical and food industries have seen growing over the last decades due to their richness in bioactive compounds. The challenges in developing an EO extraction process that assure an efficient levels of monoterpenes with impact on biological activities have driven the present study, in which the EO ...

Isotope Ratio by HRGC-MS of Citrus junos Tanaka (Yuzu) Essential Oils: m/z 137/136 of Terpene Hydrocarbons [PDF]
The isotope ratios of monoterpene hydrocarbons in Citrus junos Tanaka (yuzu) essential oils from different origins were determined by ordinary high-resolution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HRGC-MS). Both intensities of the molecular mass peaks (m/z 136) and of the isotope peaks (m/z 137) of monoterpene hydrocarbons were measured by single-ion ...

Supercritical Carbondioxide Extraction of Terpene Hydrocarbons from Constructed Citrus Peel Oil.
テルペンレスオイルの製造を目的として,果皮油成分に超臨界炭酸ガス(SC-C02)抽出法(75~200atm,35~60℃)を適用し,次の成果を得た.(1)溶解度は,温度一定下では圧力の上昇に伴い0.5から11.5%に増大した.しかしながら,温度が上昇するもと75~100atmでは溶解度は3.4%から1.1%に減少し,120~200atmでは逆に3.5%から11.5%に増大した.(2)リモネンが選択的に抽出されたのは,35℃では80atm以下,40および50℃では90atm以下,60℃では100atmであった.また,この時の果皮油成分のSC-CO2に対する溶解度はいずれも1%以下であった.(3)SC-CO2相のPVT(圧力・体積・温度)関係を明かにするために ...
