bark extract of pinus pinaster contains numerous phenolic compounds such as catechins, taxifolin, and phenolic acids. these compounds have received considerable attentions because of their anti-inflammatory, antimutagenic, anticarcinogenic, antimetastatic and high antioxidant activities. although p. pinaster bark has been intensely investigated in the past; there is comparably less information ...

Abstract Functional foods, drug delivery systems, and cosmetics are the main areas of application for multiphase where use naturally derived compounds is preferred. Hence, this study aimed to assess possibility using natural surfactants saponin-rich extracts produce emulsions containing antibacterial antioxidant cinnamon clove essential oils (EOs). The analyses nanoparticles dynamic light scatt...

Essential oil from the stem bark of Nigerian species of Psidiumguajava of the family Myrtaceae was obtained by hydro-distillation using an all-glass Clavenger apparatus. GC and GC/MS analysis were carried out on the essential oil and was found to contain 62 compounds constituting 99.98 % of the total oil composition. The principal constituents are hydrocarbons, amines, amides and esters with 3,...

Six members of the mammalian transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels respond to varied temperature thresholds. The natural compounds capsaicin and menthol activate noxious heat-sensitive TRPV1 and cold-sensitive TRPM8, respectively. The burning and cooling perception of capsaicin and menthol demonstrate that these ion channels mediate thermosensation. We show that, in addition to noxiou...

This work was originally undertaken to determine the effective conditions of essential oils against Trichophyton mentagrophytes in vitro for the treatment of tinea pedis in a foot bath. Agar blocks implanted with T. mentagrophytes were immersed in 0.1% aqueous agar containing two-fold dilutions of essential oils with or without sodium chloride at 27 degrees C, 37 degrees C and 42 degrees C for ...
