Pseudo-ternary phase diagrams were constructed by phase di...

Two bioactive coumarins including 7-hydroxycoumarin (umbelliferone) and 7-hydroxyl-6-methoxy-3, 70-dicoumarylether (daphnoretin) were separated from the ethyl acetate extract of the stems of Edgeworthia chrysantha Lindl (E. papyrifera) by high speed countercurrent chromatography (HSCCC). The two-phase solvent system used was composed of n-hexane-ethyl acetate–methanol–water at an optimized volu...

Objective: The hippocampal formation, particularly the dentate gyrus (DG), shows age-related morphological changes that could cause memory decline. It is indicated that Boswellia resins attenuates memory deficits and the major component of Boswellia serrata (Bs) gum resin, beta boswellic acid increased neurite outgrowth and branching in hippocampal neurons. This study was designed to investigat...

The resinous metabolites commonly known as frankincense or olibanum are produced by trees of the genus Boswellia and have attracted increasing popularity in Western countries in the last decade for their various pharmacological activities. This review described the pharmacological specific details mainly on anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, anti-bacterial and apoptosis-regulating activities...

We investigated the effects of CO2 enrichment on fine root chemical composition of two tree species common to northern hardwood forests. Two-year-old Betula papyrifera and 3-year-old Acer saccharum saplings were grown under ambient (400 μmol·mol–1) and elevated (700 μmol·mol–1) CO2 in a glasshouse experiment. In both species, root/shoot ratios and fine root percentages (of total biomass) were u...
