Antibacterial and Oxidative Stress-Protective Effects of Five Monoterpenes from Softwood
Volatile organic compounds (VOC) affect the quality of indoor air. Terpenes and especially monoterpenes are the main molecules emitted from softwood material (coniferous species), which is widely used in construction. The corneal epithelium is one of the

Anaerobic Degradation of Bicyclic Monoterpenes in Castellaniella defragrans
The microbial degradation pathways of bicyclic monoterpenes contain unknown enzymes for carbon–carbon cleavages. Such enzymes may also be present in the betaproteobacterium Castellaniella defragrans, a model organism to study the anaerobic monoterpene ...
