Phenolic compounds in floral infusions of various Sambucus species and their interspecific hybrids

Budding Compatibility of Almond and Plum on Some Wild Species and Interspecific Hybrids of Almond

The Phenolic Contents and Antioxidant Activities of Infusions of Sambucus nigra L.

The aim of this work was to evaluate the antioxidant potential of teas prepared from twenty-four commercially available berries and flowers of Sambucus nigra L. in relation to their phenolic profile, as reflected by the most representative phenolic acids (caffeic, chlorogenic, p-coumaric, ferulic, gallic and syringic acids); flavonols (quercetin, kaempferol, myricetin and rutin); and total phen...

Biological Activity of Phenolic Compounds from Argentinean Herbs Infusions

Argentinean herbal infusions were studied for their beneficial biological properties and secondary metabolites content, such as phenolic compounds in order to find new natural products beneficial. The modifications of antihypertensive and antioxidant activities by the addition of commonly used additives (lemon, sugar and sweetener) were studied also. Ilex paraguaiensis infusion showed the highe...

Phenolic Compounds and Antioxidant Activity of Phalaenopsis Orchid Hybrids

Phalaenopsis spp. is the most commercially and economically important orchid, but their plant parts are often left unused, which has caused environmental problems. To date, reports on phytochemical analyses were most available on endangered and medicinal orchids. The present study was conducted to determine the total phenolics, total flavonoids, and antioxidant activity of ethanol extracts prep...

Interspecific Hybrids

The regulation of gene expression is essential for organismal form, function, and fitness. Complex organismal development from zygote to adult requires finely tuned expression of genes in space, time, and abundance. Proper expression of genes is also required for most other aspects of physiology and function. Even minor changes in gene expression have the potential to significantly impact pheno...
