1. The leaf tannin of willow-herb [Chamaenerion angustifolium (L.) Scop.] has been isolated and separated into two fractions of differing solubility. 2. The tannin contains a penta-O-galloyl-beta-d-glucose core to which further galloyl groups are depsidically bound. 3. The unfractionated tannin contains an average of 10.5 galloyl groups/glucose molecule; the soluble fraction has on average 7.6 ...

The Anticancer Effects of Sargassum Boveanum Hydroalcoholic Extract in Human Colorectal Cancer Cell Lines

Ceropegia palustris Pursh and Lyonia maritima Elliott (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae) are currently recognized as synonyms of Funastrum angustifolium (Pers.) Liede & Meve. The diminutive vine, one of the most readily recognizable taxa among a number of taxonomically difficult climbing milkweeds in the southeastern United States, occurs primarily in swamps, hammocks, and salt marshes. A neotype i...

The results of the toxicological experiment on extracts from Epilobium angustifolium L. herb are presented. Absence reliable negative changes, structural and functional disorders was established in accordance with criteria for assessing harmfulness danger toxic effect raw materials studied Good Laboratory Practice (GLP). Significant differences some hematological parameters experimental group a...

Blooms and coastal inundations of pelagic Sargassum have caused major problems to communities ecosystems throughout the tropical Atlantic over past decade. Understanding growth, movement, mortality is essential being able predict mitigate these events. In principle, cyclones that occur in this area could an impact on all three processes. a recent article, Sosa-Gutierrez et al. (2022, https://do...

A phytochemical investigation of a southern Australian marine brown alga, Sargassum paradoxum, resulted in the isolation and identification of four new (5, 9, 10, and 15) and nine previously reported (1, 2, 6-8, and 11-14) bioactive meroditerpenoids. HPLC-NMR and HPLC-MS were central to the identification of a new unstable compound, sargahydroquinal (9), and pivotal in the deconvolution of eigh...
