Seasonal Changes in Marine Archaeal Tetraether Lipid Export Depth Linked to Net Primary Productivity
Abstract Marine ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA) produce isoprenoid glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) which form the basis of seawater temperature proxy TEX86. Although most studies use TEX86 for sea surface temperature (SST) reconstructions, maximum GDGT production occurs at and below the nitracline. Moreover, sedimentary GDGT‐2/GDGT‐3

Absorption of phytol from dietary chlorophyll in the rat
The fate of ingested chlorophyll—particularly of the phytol portion of the molecule—was studied. Uniformly 14C-labeled pheophytin a (the Mg-free derivative of chlorophyll a) was prepared from an extract of tobacco leaves grown in 14CO2, and was ...

Abstract The Permian–Triassic environmental crisis triggered fundamental changes in marine ecosystems, culminating in the most severe biodiversity crisis of the Phanerozoic. Yet, the environmental and geochemical conditions governing the crisis and ecosystem recovery remain debated.

Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.

Metabolism of phytol-U-14C and phytanic acid-U-14C in the rat
The metabolism of uniformly-labeled 14C-phytol, 14C-phytenic acid, and 14C-phytanic acid was studied in the rat. Conversion of both phytol and phytenic acid to phytanic acid was demonstrated.

Absorption of chlorophyll phytol in normal man and in patients with Refsum's disease
This study was made to determine the extent of absorption of chlorophyll phytol from the intestine of man, and the importance of chlorophyll as a source of the phytanic acid that accumulates in Refsum's disease. Uniformly 14C-labeled pheophytin a (the Mg-

In vitroanti-quorum sensing activity of phytol
Anti-quorum sensing activity of the diterpene phytol was evaluated in vitro for the first time. This compound (at three sub-MIC concentrations – 0.5, 0.25 and 0.125 MIC, respectively) reduced the formation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 biofilm in the range of 74.00–84.33% exhibiting higher activity than the both positive controls used, streptomycin ...

New Phytol Derivatives with Increased Cosmeceutical Potential
Natural compounds are widely incorporated into cosmetic products for many purposes. Diterpenes often function as fragrances, enhancing the sensory experience of these formulations. However, current trends in cosmetic science aim to develop multifunctional products, where compounds traditionally used for texture or fragrance also possess biological ...
