The essential oils of wild Clausena lansium collected in Hainan Island, China were extracted from leaves, flowers, sarcocarps and seeds, and then analyzed by using GC/MS. The main constituents of the essential oils were: beta-santalol (35.2%), bisabolol (13.7%), methyl santalol (6.9%), ledol (6.5%) and sinensal (5.6%) in the leaves; beta-santalol (50.6%), 9-octadecenamide (17.2%) and sinensal (...

Twenty-three known chemical compounds were identified in the leaves of Leea indica (Burm. f.) Merr. (Leeaceae) by GC-MS analysis, spectroscopic techniques and co-TLC with authentic samples. The identified compounds include eleven hydrocarbons, phthalic acid, palmitic acid, 1-eicosanol, solanesol, farnesol, three phthalic acid esters, gallic acid, lupeol, beta-sitosterol and ursolic acid. Gallic...

The interactions of recombinant juvenile hormone binding protein (His8-rJHBP) with juvenile hormones (JHs), methoprene and farnesol have been studied with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The protein was immobilized on the dodecanethiol (DDT) modified gold electrodes. Each step of electrode modification has been confirmed with cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance s...
