Supported liquid membranes (SLMs) containing novel green solvents are proposed as a sustainable alternative separation process in the recovery of biomolecules. In this work, succinic acid has been successfully extracted from model fermentation broths through stripping phase-facilitated transport mechanism with four different supported membranes: two eutectic (DL-menthol:OctA and N4444Cl:OctA), ...

The honeybee disease nosemosis type C is a serious problem since its causative agent, microsporidium Nosema ceranae, is widespread among adult honey bees. Some of the feasible alternative treatments that are used to control this disease are plant extracts. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the effects of essential oils of Chilean plant species, such as Cryptocarya alba, which is used ...

Aqueous solubility is often a limiting factor in any concentration-dependent process and n-octanol/water partition coefficient, usually expressed as log P, is equilibrium between surrogate of nonaqueous biophases and water phase. The aqueous solubility of seven liquid monoterpenes: (+/-)-beta-citronellol, (+/-)-linalool, linalyl acetate, (-)-alpha-pinene, (-)-beta-pinene, eucalyptol and terpine...

Background:Because of the increasing prevalence of fungal infections and antifungal resistance, researchers are seeking new antifungal medications and alternatives. This study aimed to assess the antifungal properties of Myrtus communis L. essential oil and hydroalcoholic extract on Candida species isolated from clinical specimens. Methods: A total of 65 Candida species isolated from clinical ...

Recently, our research group identified and reported 1,8-cineole (CIN), a monoterpene that naturally occur in many aromatic plants, as one of the major constituent of the essential oil from leaves of Hyptis martiusii (EOHM), as well as characterized the gastroprotective action of this oil. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms of action involved in the antiulcer and healing ac...

because of its resistance to antibiotics, staphylococcus aureus causes many of problems in hospital and society. as one of the main reasons of clinical infections it can cause to serious surgical and cutaneous infections and pneumonia. the inhibitory effect of the essential oils include; eucalyptus largiflorence, e. camaldulensis, e. malliodora and e. polycarpa as a natural and herbal antimicro...

Retronasal (retro) and/or oral-cavity-only (OeD) smelling of vapor-phase agonists for the trigeminal chemoreceptive ion channel TRPM8 was studied. In a retro and OeD identification experiment. 1 of 6 previously practiced identifications (ID) was selected on a computer display under forced-choice conditions. Analyses of variance (ANOV A) found differences across odorants and retro and OeD. and f...

The clinical effects of piperazine ferulate tablets combined with eucalyptol limonene pinene enteric soft capsules for treatment of children with IgA nephropathy were investigated. Sixty children with IgA nephropathy were included in the study and were randomly divided into the control (n=30) and observation (n=30) groups. The patients in the control group were treated with conservative or horm...
