Among the Basidiomycetes the species of the genus Coprinus have black spores and hymenia that, at maturity, are transformed through autodigestion into a black or inky fluid that drops from the pileus and blackens the soil beneath the fruiting structures. The melanins from three different species of Coprinus have been characterized by spectroscopic techniques, including cross-polarization, magic...

research works proposed that radical scavenging activity of flavonoids is due to ring b, andthe remaining part of the molecule can be disregarded. thus the objective of this work is toobserve whether hydroxytoluenes account the radical scavenging activity of flavonoid and toestablish structural requirements for their activity (as they showed appreciable activity) andelucidate a comprehensive me...
