New cytotoxic natural products from the mangrove biome: covering the period 2007-2015
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2019)
Nowadays, the mangrove biome is considered to be a profound resource of natural products usually possessing cytotoxicity of a broader range. Covering the period 2007-2015, a total of 21 new naturally occurring compounds ...
Avarol derivatives as competitive AChE inhibitors, non hepatotoxic and neuroprotective agents for Alzheimer's disease
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2016)
Avarol is a marine sesquiterpenoid hydroquinone, previously isolated from the marine sponge Dysidea avara Schmidt (Dictyoceratida), with antiinflammatory, antitumor, antioxidant, antiplatelet, anti-HIV, and antipsoriatic ...
A comparative overview of antioxidative properties and phenolic profiles of different fungal origins: fruiting bodies and submerged cultures of Coprinus comatus and Coprinellus truncorum
(Springer India, New Delhi, 2017)
Bioactive properties of fungi considerably differ between the fruiting body (FB) and the submerged culture as regards mycelia (M) and the fermentation broth (F). Antioxidant properties of hot-water extracts obtained from ...
Impact of vinification procedure on fruit wine inhibitory activity against alpha-glucosidase
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
alpha-Glucosidase inhibitory activity (AGL) of fruit wine samples made from blueberry, black chokeberry, blackberry, raspberry and sour cherry cultivars grown in Serbia was studied using an microvinification procedure. ...
Optical and electrical properties of gallium doped indium tin oxide optimized for low deposition temperature applications
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2017)
In optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices, transparent conductive oxides are important in establishing a good electrical contact while minimizing optical losses over a broad range of wavelengths (400-1200 nm). To date, ...
Trametes versicolor ethanol extract, a promising candidate for health-promoting food supplement
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2018)
This study aimed to estimate antiradical, antioxidant (AO) and cytotoxic activities of the fungus Trametes versicolor ethanol fruiting body extract. The extract was found to effectively scavenge both O-2(center dot-) and ...
Fruit Wines Inhibitory Activity Against alpha-Glucosidase
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, Sharjah, 2017)
Background: Fruit wines are well known for their profound health-promoting properties including both enzyme activations and inhibitions. They may act preventive in regard to diabetes melitus and other chronic diseases. ...
An insight into chemical composition and biological activity of Montenegrin Vranac red wine
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
This study aimed to describe quality and potential health benefits of three Vranac wines obtained from new grape clones (CI, CII and CIII) recently developed and recognised. In this aim, their phenolic profiles, ...
The conformation of biliverdin in dimethyl sulfoxide: implications for the coordination with copper
(Springer/Plenum Publishers, New York, 2019)
Biliverdin (BV) structure was analyzed by using NMR techniques and unrestricted density function theory simulations to explain the incapacity of BV to build coordination complex(es) with Cu2+ in dimethyl sulfoxide, which ...
Biomonitoring of Urban Pollution Using Silicon-Accumulating Species, Phyllostachys aureosulcata 'Aureocaulis'
(Springer, New York, 2017)
We investigated metal accumulation in bamboo leaves during three seasons at three urban locations differing in pollution levels. The higher content of Cu, Pb, and Zn in the leaves was in correlation with the highest ...
