Evaluation of Peppermint Leaf Flavonoids as SARS-CoV-2 Spike Receptor-Binding Domain Attachment Inhibitors to the Human ACE2 Receptor: A Molecular Docking Study [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Virtual screening is a computational technique widely used for identifying small molecules which are most likely to bind to a protein target. Here, we performed a molecular docking study to propose potential candidates to prevent the RBD/ACE2 attachment. These candidates are sixteen different flavonoids present in the peppermint leaf.

Agricultural quality matrix-based multiomics structural analysis of carrots in soils fertilized with thermophile-fermented compost [PDF]
, 2022 Compost is used worldwide as a soil conditioner for crops, but its functions have still been explored. Here, the omics profiles of carrots were investigated, as a root vegetable plant model, in a field amended with compost fermented with thermophilic Bacillaceae for growth and quality indices.
