Plant-Based Insect Repellents: A Review Of Their Efficacy, Development and Testing. [PDF]
, 2011 Plant-based repellents have been used for generations in traditional practice as a personal protection measure against host-seeking mosquitoes. Knowledge on traditional repellent plants obtained through ethnobotanical studies is a valuable resource for ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Physicochemical characterization and phenolic compound content of flour from blended juice residues
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND The production of fruit juices generates substantial amounts of residue, including peels, seeds, pomace, stalks, and leaves, which are rich in nutritionally relevant compounds, such as fiber and bioactives. The aims of this study were to evaluate drying conditions for converting mixed juice residue, composed of apple, beetroot ...

Influence of crosslinker on the properties of terpene‐based poly(high internal phase emulsion)s
Polymer International, EarlyView.Myrcene was polymerized and crosslinked with hydrophilic monomeric and oligomeric dimethacrylates within high internal phase emulsions to produce hierarchically porous bio‐based poly(high internal phase emulsion)s with tuned morphology and mechanical properties.

(S)-(-)-Limonene Derivatives Containing (1H-1,2,3-Triazol-4-yl)methyl 4-Bromobenzoate
Molbank, 2011 The synthesis of (S)-(-)-limonene derivatives containing (1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methyl 4-bromobenzoate were obtained by epoxidation, azidolysis and Huisgen’s 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition.

Kinetics of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene in hydrocarbon solvents
Polymer International, EarlyView.The process of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene in hydrocarbon solvents was examined by kinetic studies and quantum chemical calculations. Abstract The kinetics of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene initiated by sec‐butyllithium were examined in saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbon solvents, i.e. cyclohexane, cyclohexene, 4‐vinylcyclohexene and dl‐

A walk in the park—Identifying healthy greenspaces using scents
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.As urbanisation accelerates globally, access to nature is increasingly recognised as vital for public health and wellbeing. We captured and analysed plant‐emitted airborne ‘scent signatures’ across Oxford's urban greenspaces to assess their potential health relevance.
