Phenolics and Plant Allelopathy
Molecules, 2010 Phenolic compounds arise from the shikimic and acetic acid (polyketide) metabolic pathways in plants. They are but one category of the many secondary metabolites implicated in plant allelopathy. Phenolic allelochemicals have been observed in both natural

Behavior of hydrophobic ionic liquids as liquid membranes on phenol removal: Experimental study and optimization [PDF]
Desalination, Vol. 278, No. 1-3, pp. 250-258, 2011, 2014 Room temperature ionic liquids show potential as an alternative to conventional organic membrane solvents mainly due to their properties of low vapor pressure, low volatility and they are often stable. In the present work, the technical feasibilities of room temperature ionic liquids as bulk liquid membranes for phenol removal were investigated ...

Extracellular and intracellular polyphenol oxidases cause opposite effects on sensitivity of Streptomyces to phenolics: a case of double-edged sword. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Many but not all species of Streptomyces species harbour a bicistronic melC operon, in which melC2 encodes an extracellular tyrosinase (a polyphenol oxidase) and melC1 encodes a helper protein.

Emergent behaviour in a chlorophenol-mineralising three-tiered microbial `food web' [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Anaerobic digestion enables the water industry to treat wastewater as a resource for generating energy and recovering valuable by-products. The complexity of the anaerobic digestion process has motivated the development of complex models. However, this complexity makes it intractable to pin-point stability and emergent behaviour.

High Throughput Screening of Natural Phenolic Compounds Against Migration of Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) Cells [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 In this report, we hypothesize that natural phenolic compounds may present a new class of chemotherapeutics against migration of metastatic triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC). In this project we will screen a small library of phenolic compounds to test this hypothesis, identify compounds that show efficacy against TNBC cell migration, and elucidate ...

Effect of hydrothermal processing on changes of insoluble-bound phenolics of lentils
Journal of Functional Foods, 2017 The changes in the insoluble-bound phenolics (IBPs) of lentil cultivars upon hydrothermal (boiling) processing were monitored using HPLC-ESI-MSn analysis and by following different antioxidant capacity measurements.

Photooxidation of water with heptazine-based molecular photocatalysts: Insights from spectroscopy and computational chemistry [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We present a conspectus of recent joint spectroscopic and computational studies which provided novel insight into the photochemistry of hydrogen-bonded complexes of the heptazine (Hz) chromophore with hydroxylic substrate molecules (water and phenol).

Enhanced photoluminescence from single nitrogen-vacancy defects in nanodiamonds coated with metal-phenolic networks [PDF]
, 2015 Fluorescent nanodiamonds are attracting major attention in the field of bio-sensing and biolabeling. In this work we demonstrate a robust approach to surface functionalize individual nanodiamonds with metal-phenolic networks that enhance the photoluminescence from single nitrogen vacancy (NV) centers.
