Eleven novel asymmetric pyrimidine derivatives were synthesized. The pyrimidine core was functionalized with a coumarin chromophore and a pro-mesogenic fragment bearing either chiral or linear alkyl chains of variable length and substitution patterns...

Localized 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a powerful tool in pre-clinical and clinical neurological research, offering non-invasive insight into neurochemical composition in localized brain regions. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are increasingl...

Improper use of drugs in both animal and human therapy, such as doxycycline (DOX), lead to the accumulation of residues in edible animal tissues as well as in the environment. Plant-derived compounds reduce the adverse effects of drugs. This study ai...

Lycopene, a natural carotenoid with antioxidant and health-promoting properties, has attracted attention as a valuable compound for the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Conventional production methods based on plant extraction or chemic...

Pleurotus ostreatus, commonly known as the oyster mushroom, is a widely cultivated edible mushroom characterized by its nutritional value and health benefits. However, its large-scale production generates significant amounts of agro-industrial by-pro...

Phytochemicals are plant-derived bioactive compounds with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and epigenetic modulatory effects that may contribute to the prevention and management of chronic diseases. This review synthesizes recent evidence on the molec...

Chemical bonds among carbon atoms are central to chemistry. A general working principle regarding these interactions is that these contacts become stronger as the carbon atoms become closer to each other. Nevertheless, there are long, yet strong sing...

Flavonoids are naturally occurring compounds with reported anticancer, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, cardio-protective and antioxidant effects. They are increasingly incorporated in functional foods designed to promote health, enhance well-being,...

The increasing atmospheric CO2 concentration is one of the major environmental challenges, necessitating not only emission reduction but also effective carbon utilization. Non-thermal plasma-catalytic CO2 conversion offers an efficient pathway under...

This study aimed to investigate the phytochemical constituents of C. odorata leaves and stems and to evaluate their antioxidant, total phenol, α-glucosidase, and antibacterial activities. Furthermore, liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass...
