Linalool is the main compound of many essential oils and occurs in two isomeric forms: S-(+)- and R-(-)-linalool. This study aimed to determine if linalool isomers have different antimicrobial and anesthetic properties in fish. For this purpose, these compounds were previously isolated from Lippia alba (Mill.)N. E. Brown and Ocimum americanum L. essential oils. Antimicrobial effects were evalua...

In laboratory bioassays, host-seeking adult blacklegged ticks, Ixodes scapularis Say, lone star ticks, Amblyomma americanum (L.), and American dog ticks, Dermacentor variabilis (Say), were exposed to substances from the pelage of dogs and white-tailed deer, Odocoileus virginianus (Zimmermann). Male A. americanum exhibited an arrestant response to all samples of deer tarsal gland substances test...

GC-MS analysis of hydroalcoholic extract lead to identification of 10 compounds. This analysis revealed that contains Ocimum sanctum L. leaves mainly Eugenol, Caryophyllene.

Polymethylated Flavonols, Identification, Enzymatic Synthesis, O-Methyltransferase, Chrysosplenium americanum, Saxifragaceae The major flavonoid constituents of Chrysosplenium americanum (Saxifragaceae) were identi­ fied by UV-, NMRand mass spectroscopy and the analysis of their hydrolytic products. They consisted of two 2'-0-/?-D-glucosides of partially methylated 2'-hydroxyquercetin and four ...
