Reductive amination of 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) was used to implement the transition from bio-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to pharmaceuticals. The synthesized bis(aminomethyl)furans were utilized as building blocks for the construction of new derivatives with structural cores of naturally occurring biologically active compounds. Using the one-pot procedure, which included the Diels-Alde...

New tetrazole analogues with bio-active cores have been synthesized by a novel synthetic methodology. The synthesized compounds were characterized using FT-IR, MS, elemental analysis, H, C and HSQC NMR spectroscopic techniques. The synthesized compounds were screened for their antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Vibreo cholerae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and K...

Like many other organisms, fishes are also rich sources of bio-active compounds which were well studied by research focused on their antimicrobial, antihypertensive, antioxidant and antitumor activities. They can be used not only for good nutritional value, but also for peptides obtained with analytic processes that were developed in last decades. Aquatic organisms total the highest number of s...

Garlic ( Allium sativum ) is one of the oldest cultivated plants. It has been used as a spice, food, and folk medicine for many years. contains about 2000 biologically active components. For centuries, scientists have obtained variety compositions physiological activities garlic, depending on methods processing extraction. Many review articles were published, where object study was garlic. But ...

Halocnemum strobilaceum is a halophyte present in the humid and arid bioclimatic regions of Egypt. The current study aimed at UPLC/PDA/ESI-MSn qualitative chemical profiling of the phytoconstituents underlining both antioxidant and cytotoxic activities of the bio-active fraction in comparison with the other fractions. It resulted in detection of several related compounds to prenylated flavonol ...

Biorefinery aims at the conversion of biomass and renewable feedstocks into fuels and platform chemicals, in analogy to conventional oil refinery. In the past years, the scientific community has defined a number of primary building blocks that can be obtained by direct biomass decomposition. However, the large potential of this "renewable chemical space" to contribute to the generation of value...

The purpose of the study was to evaluate properties by-products obtained from oil industry, identify content bioactive compounds and test safety their reintroduction in food industry. Three sunflower meals after cold-pressing whole (WSM), partially dehulled (PSM) total (TSM) seeds were used. A higher protein, ash fiber for WSM, followed by PSM, TSM meals. Conversely, lipid lower WSM Sunflower a...
