Comparison of terpene components from flowers of Artemisia annua
Terpene constituents of essential oils obtained by steam distillation from Artemisia annua flowers at the pre-, full- and post-flowering stage was investigated by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometric detector (GC-MS). The aim

Metabolism of Monoterpenes [PDF]
l-Menthone of peppermint leaves is reduced to d-neomenthol which is glucosylated and transported to the rhizome, whereupon the beta-d-glucoside is hydrolyzed, the aglycone oxidized back to l-menthone, and this ketone converted to l-3,4-menthone lactone.

Thermodynamics of the Isomerization of Monoterpene Epoxides [PDF]
In this contribution, the thermodynamic analysis of α- and β-pinene epoxide isomerization over Fe and Cu supported on MCM-41 is presented using computational chemistry and group contribution methods (GCMs). Some physical-chemical data (T c, P c, v c, Z c, ω, T b, T fus) and thermodynamic (S°298.15, C p,298.15 °, C v,298.15 °, ΔH f,298.15 °, ΔG f,298.15

Evidence for marine production of monoterpenes [PDF]
Environmental context. Laboratory incubation experiments and shipboard measurements in the Southern Atlantic Ocean have provided the first evidence for marine production of monoterpenes. Nine marine phytoplankton monocultures were investigated using a GC-

Essential Oils of Lamiaceae Family Plants as Antifungals
The incidence of fungal infections has been steadily increasing in recent years. Systemic mycoses are characterized by the highest mortality. At the same time, the frequency of infections caused by drug-resistant strains and new pathogens e.g., Candida ...

Biological Activities of Essential Oils: From Plant Chemoecology to Traditional Healing Systems
Essential oils are complex mixtures of hydrocarbons and their oxygenated derivatives arising from two different isoprenoid pathways. Essential oils are produced by glandular trichomes and other secretory structures, specialized secretory tissues mainly ...
