Eugenol has antifungal activity and is recognised as having therapeutic potential. However, little is known of the cellular basis of its antifungal activity and a better understanding of eugenol tolerance should lead to better exploitation of eugenol in antifungal therapies. The model yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, expressing apoaequorin was used to show that eugenol induces cytosolic Ca(2+) ...

OBJECTIVES Epilepsy establishment gives rise to biochemical and morphological changes in the hippocampus. Oxidative stress, morphological changes, and mossy fiber sprouting (MFS) in the hippocampus underpin the epilepsy establishment. Eugenol is the main component of the essential oil extracted from cloves with the potential to modulate neuronal excitability. Therefore, we investigated the effe...

The title compound, C(13)H(11)Cl(2)N(3)O(2), was obtained by the reaction of eugenol and cyanuric chloride. The dihedral angle between the benzene and triazine rings is 87.56 (4)°. Two C atoms of the allyl group are disordered over two sites in a 0.72 (2):0.28 (2) ratio.

There has been great interest in intervention strategies based on plant essential oils to control pathogens such as Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes (Lm). However, the poor solubility of essential oils in water makes it difficult to disperse evenly in food matrices, impacting food quality and antimicrobial efficacy. In the present study, eugenol was dispersed in nanocapsules ...

Many fungal pathogens are associated with grapevine trunk diseases (GTDs), which cause important yield and economic losses in grape production. There no effective control methods against GTDs once plants infected, so research is aimed at preventive measures to avoid infections nurseries vineyards. Inhibitory activities of the phenolic compounds eugenol, epigallocatechin–3–O–gallate (EGCG) thymo...

BACKGROUND Inhibition and eradication of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms with conventional antibiotic is difficult, and the treatment is further complicated by the rise of antibiotic resistance among staphylococci. Consequently, there is a need for novel antimicrobials that can treat biofilm-related infections and decrease antibiotics burden. Natural compounds such as eugenol with anti-microbial...

Effects of eugenol (AQUI-S 20E, 10% active eugenol) sedation on cool water, yellow perch Perca flavescens (Mitchill), and warm water, Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus L. fish metabolic rates were assessed. Both species were exposed to 0, 10, 20 and 30 mg L 1 eugenol using static respirometry. In 17°C water and loading densities of 60, 120 and 240 g L , yellow perch controls (0 mg L 1 eugenol)...

The title compound, C(16)H(14)Cl(2)O(4)S, was obtained by the reaction of eugenol (4-allyl-2-meth-oxy-phenol) and 3,4-dichloro-benzene-sulfonyl chloride. The dihedral angle between the benzene rings in the mol-ecule is 40.53 (4)°. No significantly short inter-molecular contacts are observed in the crystal structure.

In the title compound, C(19)H(18)O(5), the ester group is twisted with respect to the acetyl-salicylic acid and eugenol rings at dihedral angles of 22.48 (2) and 81.07 (1)°, respectively. The dihedral angle between the two benzene rings is 60.72 (1)°. The crystal packing exhibits no significantly short inter-molecular contacts.
