Rosemary Essential Oil Microemulsion for Fungal Keratitis Treatment. [PDF]

Chem Biodivers
ABSTRACT This study investigated the use of Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) essential oil in a microemulsion (ME) formulation for the treatment of ocular fungal keratitis, a serious infection that can lead to blindness. The ME was characterized in terms of pH, stability, homogeneity, osmolarity, and other physicochemical properties.

Chemical Profiling and Biological Activity of Copaiba Oil-Resin Samples and Development of HPLC-DAD Method for the Analysis of β-Caryophyllene. [PDF]

Biomed Chromatogr
ABSTRACT The Copaifera species are traditionally used for their anti‐inflammatory, antiseptic and healing properties. The objective of this study was to compare the chromatographic profiles of seven samples of copaiba oil‐resin with respect to chromatographic and physicochemical properties and to evaluate their biological activities.

Caper Bush (<i>Capparis spinosa</i> L.) Minerals and Trace Elements Composition as Affected by Harsh Habitats in Gypsum and Non-Gypsum Drylands. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr
Elemental comparison of leaves and fruits in gypsum soil showed that gypsum soils had good quality with high levels of Ca, S, and Mg. The mineral composition of Caper bush (Capparis spinosa L.) leaves and fruits was only slightly affected by increasing gypsum in the soil. Additionally, the biochemical adaptation of C.

Antibacterial Essential Oils as Adjuvants to Inhibit Antibiotic Resistance in Multidrug-resistant Bacteria. [PDF]

Chem Biodivers
Combining bacterially inactivated antibiotics with antibacterial essential oils (EOs) is an alternative combinatorial therapy against antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, as EOs can also modulate resistance. Apart from the rehabilitation of the antibiotic, this combination is probably more difficult to overcome evolutionarily due to the antibacterial mixture

Ecological convergence in phytochemistry and flower–insect visitor interactions along an Andean elevation gradient

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
In this study, we detected patterns of ecological convergence along elevation in floral volatiles as well as cost–benefit ratio in seed versus pollinated seeds. Our results suggest that these evolutionary patterns are the result of biotic and abiotic pressures.

Antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of two Costa Rican cultivars of ber (Ziziphus mauritiana): An underexploited crop in the American tropic

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 6, Page 3320-3328, June 2023., 2023
Ber has been cultivated in Asia for many years, and it has been introduced to the American tropic in recent years. We studied the characteristics and benefits of the cultivation of this fruit in Central America. We found out it produces higher antioxidant levels than many other reports, and also shows antimicrobial properties.

Structural and compositional dimensions of phytochemical diversity in the genus Piper reflect distinct ecological modes of action

Journal of Ecology, Volume 110, Issue 1, Page 57-67, January 2022., 2022
Crude extract 1H NMR diversity synthesizes the compositional diversity and structural complexity of phytochemical mixtures. Plants can develop chemical diversity through different combinations of structural and compositional biosynthetic mechanisms; thus, methods incorporating both dimensions of phytochemical diversity can provide new theoretical ...
