Chemical Profiling, Pharmacological Activities, and Toxicity Assessment of <i>Juniperus phoenicea</i> sp. <i>turbinata</i> L. Extract: Integrated In Vitro, In Vivo, and In Silico Insights. [PDF]
Hydroethanolic leaf and fruit extracts of Juniperus phoenicea showed high phenolic content, dominated by ferulic acid. Both extracts were non‐toxic and exhibited strong anti‐inflammatory, analgesic, antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities. Molecular docking confirmed stable binding to key inflammatory and microbial targets, supporting its ...

Sample Preparation and Separation of Lignans by Liquid Chromatography. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Lignans are important phytochemicals found mostly in the resins of coniferous trees, but are also introduced into human diets through foods such as sesame seeds and extra‐virgin olive oil. They are pharmacologically interesting mainly because of their antioxidant activities, and they have also been shown to have cytotoxic and antimicrobial ...
