Treatment of slices of young pea leaves (Pisum sativum) with muM solutions of alpha-chlorallyl diethyldithiocarbamate, dichloroallyl diisopropylthiocarbamate, or S-ethyldipropylthiocarbamate resulted in inhibition of incorporation of [1-(14)C]acetate into C(31) alkane and C(31) secondary alcohol, very little effect on the synthesis of C(26) and C(28) fatty alcohols, and an accumulation of (14)C...

The Huli of the Tari Basin have a serious problem with the spread of STDs following the opening of the Highlands Highway from Mendi in the early 1980s. Huli territory is now the site of huge mineral exploration and development and fears are held by health officers that the diseases may soon become an epidemic.

Methanolic extract from lyophilized roots of Impatiens glandulifera Royle was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography using DAD and FLD detection and this revealed one dominant highly fluorescent very unstable substance. The stability of this derivative is strongly dependent on the plant material drying procedure and extraction procedure used. The structure of the substance was estab...

A novel binary compounds as 3-(1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-2-phenyl-2H-benzo[f]indazole-4,9-dione (10) and fused 2-hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxy-7-methoxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinolin-3-yl)naphthalene-1,4-dione (7) naphtho[2,3-b]furan-3,4,9(2H)-trione (6) based on lawsone ‘that plays important precursor’ was synthesized by reaction with 1,3-diphenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde halo-compounds, such 2-chlor...
