The essential oils of wild Clausena lansium collected in Hainan Island, China were extracted from leaves, flowers, sarcocarps and seeds, and then analyzed by using GC/MS. The main constituents of the essential oils were: beta-santalol (35.2%), bisabolol (13.7%), methyl santalol (6.9%), ledol (6.5%) and sinensal (5.6%) in the leaves; beta-santalol (50.6%), 9-octadecenamide (17.2%) and sinensal (...

The stimulation by yeast extract of acid production in milk by various lactobacilli was studied. It was found that supplementing milk with purine and pyrimidine bases and amino acids allowed nearly maximal acid production by Lactobacillus bulgaricus strain 7994, L. acidophilus 4796, 4356, and 4357, and L. leichmannii 326 and 327. Further supplementation with deoxyribotides allowed maximal acid ...

Fungal pathologies caused by the genus Candida have increased in recent years due to involvement of immunosuppressed people and advance resistance mechanisms acquired these microorganisms. Liposomes are nanovesicles with lipid bilayers which they store compounds. ?-Bisabolol is a sesquiterpene proven biological activities, this work it was tested alone liposomes association Fluconazole vitro ev...

The paper presents a molecular modeling and docking studies on the interactions between natural αand β-cyclodextrin and the main biocompounds from Compositae family plants. Both vacuum and water periodic box conditions were used for the docking experiments. A comparative study on the formation and stability of complex obtained with non-oxidized/oxidized forms of biocompounds was performed. The ...

     Chemical constituents of the essential oil of flowers of Lavandula officinalis Chaix. growing in Isfahan, Iran, were studied by TLC and gas chromatography-mass specrtometery (GC-MS) methods. Twelve components which constitute 94.8% of the examined oil were identified. The main constituents were linalool (34.1%), 1,8-cineole (18.5%), borneol (14.5%), camphor (10.2%), terpinen-4-ol (4.5%), l...
