New bitter-tasting hemiterpene glycosides from the Japanese fern Hymenophyllum barbatum.

Hymenosides A-F, six new hemiterpene glucosides from the Japanese fern Hymenophyllum barbatum.

In the course of investigation of the bitter-tasting substances of the Japanese fern Hymenophyllum barbatum belonging to the family Hymenophyllaceae, six new hemiterpene glucosides called hymenosides A-F (1-6) have been isolated from the methanol extract, together with an acyclic bis-bibenzyl derivative, perrottetin H. This paper deals with the structure elucidation of the newly isolated glucos...

Melanogenesis inhibitory activities of iridoid-, hemiterpene-, and fatty acid-glycosides from the fruits of Morinda citrifolia (Noni).

A new iridoid glycoside, 9-epi-6alpha-methoxy geniposidic acid (4), three new hemiterpene glycosides, 3-methylbut-3-enyl 2'-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (nonioside K) (6), 3-methylbut-3-enyl 6'-O-(beta-D-xylopyranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (nonioside L) (8), and 3-methylbut-3-enyl 6'-O-(beta-D-xylofuranosyl)-beta-D-glucopyranoside (nonioside M) (9), and two new saccharide ...

Response of pigs to bitter-tasting compounds.

Two-bottle preference tests were done to determine whether pigs detect bitter-tasting compounds. Four standard bitter compounds and nine bitter-tasting pharmaceutical compounds were tested. Pigs detect and avoid taste compounds that humans perceive as bitter-tasting. A dose-response to varying concentrations of bitter tastants can be measured.
