An efficient protocol was developed to control excessive phenolic compound secretion during callus culture of cotton. As cotton is naturally rich in phenolic compounds factors influencing the phenolic compound secretion, callus induction and proliferation were optimized for getting high frequency callus culture. Different carbon sources such as fructose, glucose, sucrose and maltose were tested...

the methanol extracts of leaves of bauhinia acuminata (mesf) and their different fractions obtained from modified kupchan partitioning method i.e. methanol, pet ether, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, and aqueous soluble fractions were subjected to biological screening such as total phenolic content and antioxidant activity screening.the amount of total phenolic content differed in different e...

Plant peroxidases are capable of binding phenolic substrates, and it has been possible to crystallize complexes between horseradish peroxidase C (HRP C) and benzhydroxamic acid. The X-ray structures of the binary HRP C:ferulic acid complex and the ternary HRP C:CN(-):ferulic acid complex to 2.0 and 1.45 A resolution, respectively, have also been solved recently. Ferulic acid is a naturally occu...

Chlorogenic acid, a pharmacologically important compound, is a phenolic compound that occurs in certain commonly used medicinal herbs. We looked for the presence of this compound in the callus cultures of Varthemia persica DC (var. persica). We have evaluated the conditions for establishment of callus cultures of V. persica and the in vitro production of chlorogenic acid. Callus was initiated b...

The title compound, C9H10O3, is a bioactive secondary metabolite, isolated from the endophytic fungus Nodulisporium sp. The compound exhibits an intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bond between the phenolic H atom and the carbonyl O atom of the adjacent acetyl group. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by hydrogen bonds involving the 4-phenolic H atom and a symmetry-related carbonyl O atom of a ne...

objectives: leaves and flowers ofelaeagnus angustifolia contain phenolic and flavonoid compounds. these compounds have antioxidant properties that protect cells from oxidative damage. the aim of this study was to determine and analyze total phenolic and flavonoid content of leaves and flowers in two e. angustifolia variants using different solvents (ethanol and methanol). materials and methods:...

BACKGROUND Flowers of Bauhinia kockiana were investigated for their anticancer properties. METHODS Gallic acid (1), and methyl gallate (2), were isolated via bioassay-directed isolation, and they exhibited anticancer properties towards several cancer cell lines, examined using MTT cell viability assay. Pyrogallol (3) was examined against the same cancer cell lines to deduce the bioactive func...

Nowadays use of edible films and coatings is increasing due to their biodegradability and environment friendly properties. Fish gelatin obtained from fish skin wastage can be used as an appropriate protein compound for replacing pork gelatin to produce edible film. In this study films were prepared by combination of fish gelatin and different concentration (0%, 1%, 3%, and 5%) of two phenolic c...

background & aim: nowdays consumers prefer to eat healthier foods, therefore producers and researchers are involved to improve the variety, quality, taste of food products. lemon balm is a perennial, aromatic, herb that contains many phenolic compounds. in this research the effect of additing lemon balm powder (by reducing of wheat flour in formulation, instead) on qualities of sponge cakes...
