Forensic anthropologists routinely macerate human bone for the purposes of identity and trauma analysis, but the heat and chemical treatments used can destroy genetic evidence. As a follow-up to a previous study on nuclear DNA recovery that used pig ribs, this study utilizes human skeletal remains treated with various bone maceration techniques for nuclear DNA amplification using the standard C...

BACKGROUND Propolis is widely used in apitherapy, preparations, and food and beverage additives. Various extraction techniques were applied in the extraction of the biologically active constituents of poplar type propolis in order to compare their efficiency. The methods employed were: traditional maceration extraction, ultrasound extraction (UE), and microwave assisted extraction (MAE). RESU...

Stigmasta-5,22-dien-3-O-βDgalactopyranoside has been isolated from ethyl acetate fraction of Nothopanax scutellarium Merr leaves. Extraction method used in this study was the maceration. Separation of compounds were done by column chromatography and thin layer chromatography (TLC). The purification of compound was tested by melting point test and structure elucidation performed using spectrosco...
