Studies on Triterpenoids. IX

Triterpenoids.

This review covers the isolation and structure determination of triterpenoids including squalene derivatives, protostanes, lanostanes, holostanes, cycloartanes, dammaranes, euphanes, tirucallanes, tetranortriterpenoids, quassinoids, lupanes, oleananes, friedelanes, ursanes, hopanes, isomalabaricanes and saponins. The literature from January 2005 to December 2006 is reviewed and 478 references a...

Time-resolved fluorescence studies on protoporphyrin IX-apohorseradish peroxidase.

The hemin moiety of horseradish peroxidase (donor:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.7) was removed and the apoprotein reconstituted with the fluorescent protoporphyrin IX. Steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence properties of the HRP(desFe) adduct were examined; the multifrequency phase and modulation method was utilized for lifetime and dynamic polarization studies. The emission ...

New Triterpenoids from Peucedanum ruthenicum

       From hexanic extract of aerial parts of Peucedanum ruthenicum M. Bieb (Apiaceae) collected from Mazandaran province of Iran, four triterpenoids namely taraxasterol, y-taraxasterol, poriferasterol and b-sitosterol have been isolated by column chromatography, thin layer chromatography, and crystallization. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods (UV, IR, MS, 1H and 13C-N...

Studies on Haemonchus contortus. IX. The effect of Trichostrongylus axei in Merinos on natural pasture.

Four groups of 6-7-month-old Merino lambs were each dosed with 40 000 infective larvae of Trichostrongylus axei on 2 November 1976 and subsequently exposed to challenge with Haemonchus contortus on natural grazing at the University of Pretoria's Experimental Farm in the eastern suburbs of Pretoria. One of these groups and one group of controls were killed every 8 weeks from the end of December ...
