Four new dicaffeoylquinic acid derivatives and two known 3-caffeoylquinic acid derivatives were isolated from methanol extracts using the aerial parts of Salicornia herbacea. The four new dicaffeoylquinic acid derivatives were established as 3-caffeoyl-5-dihydrocaffeoylquinic acid, 3-caffeoyl-5-dihydrocaffeoylquinic acid methyl ester, 3-caffeoyl-4-dihydrocaffeoylquinic acid methyl ester, and 3,...

The most commonly used method for biodiesel preparation is via transesterification of vegetable oil using alkaline catalysts. Biodiesel yield and oil conversion are affected by operating conditions including the catalyst formulation and concentration. Application of alkaline catalysts can also lead to undesired soap formation. This study evaluated the alkaline catalyst effects on biodiesel yiel...

A direct radioimmunoassay of the methyl ester of urinary and serum 5-hydroxy-3-indole acetic acid is described. The antiserum, raised in a rabbit against a conjugate of bovine serum albumin with 5-hydroxytryptamine hemisuccinamide, contained two antigenic fractions, one binding N-acyl 5-hydroxytryptamine, and the other binding methyl ester of 5-hydroxy-3-indole acetic acid, and N-acyl 5-hydroxy...

General information. All manipulations were performed in a N2 filled drybox or using standard Schlenk techniques. Allyl benzene, methyl vinyl ketone, pchlorostyrene, methyl methacrylate, diethyl diallylmalonate (3), and 1,6-heptadien-4ol (6) were purchased from Aldrich and used without further purification. cis-4Cyclopentene-1,3-diol and (+)-citronellal were purchased from Fluka and used withou...

In this study, the methanolysis process of sunflower oil was investigated to get high methyl esters (biodiesel) content using sodium methoxide. To reach to the best process conditions, central composite design (CCD) through response surface methodology (RSM) was employed. The optimal conditions predicted were the reaction time of 60 min, an excess stoichiometric amount of alcohol to oil ratio o...

Amritotharanam Kashyam, a specific Ayurvedic drug, was the focus of current inquiry to evaluate its efficacy. For liver and digestive-related issues, this medication is suggested. This obtained from standard vendor in Chennai (India), GC-MS analysis carried out according procedure. A few critical biomolecules include benzoic acid, hexadecanoic 6,9-octadecadienoic 9-octadecenoic methyl ester (E)...

Aqueous emulsion copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and 5,6-benzo-2-methylene-1,3-dioxepane (BMDO) leads to stable particles PMMA bearing in-chain ester units that can be cleaved under basic conditions.

EnlistTM technology is a new trait on soybean and corn conferring tolerance to auxinic-type (2,4-D choline) graminicides (aryloxyphenoxypropionates – FOPs) herbicides. However, the occurrence of volunteer tolerant 2,4-D FOPs can become significant weed cropping systems, affecting crop yield reducing seed quality. This research aimed evaluate herbicides control their effects plant development, y...

background: gossypium arboreum is resistant to cotton leaf curl burewala virus and its cognate cotton leaf curl multan betasatellite (clcubuv and clcumb). however, the g. arboreum wax deficient mutant (gawm3) is susceptible to clcuv. therefore, epicuticular wax was characterized both quantitatively and qualitatively for its role as physical barrier against whitefly mediated viral transmission a...

The main fatty acids present in lipopolysaccharides from Bacteroides fragilis NCTC 9343 were identified as 13-methyl-tetradecanoic, D-3-hydroxypentadecanoic, D-3-hydroxyhexadecanoic, D-3-hydroxy-15-methyl-hexadecanoic, and D-3-hydroxyheptadecanoic acids. Of these, 13-methyl-tetradecanoic acid is exclusively ester bound, and 3-hydroxy-15-methyl-hexadecanoic acid is exclusively involved in amide ...
