Genetic diversity, LC-ESI-MS chemical profile and antitumor activity of three Egyptian soybean cultivars.

Soybean ( L.) is one of the most important and widely consumed food plants worldwide. The objective of this study was to investigate the metabolite profiling of three Egyptian soybean cultivars (Giza 22, Giza 35 and Giza 111) and their antitumor effect.

New Abietane Diterpenes from Euphorbia Pseudocactus Berger (Euphorbiaceae) and Their Antimicrobial Activity.

Background: Euphorbia is the largest genus in Euphorbiaceae. Terpenoids were isolated from most species of this genus.

Objective: Since no previous study was reported about Euphorbia pseudocactus Berger, we started here a phytochemical investigation on this species to isolate and identify its terpenoid constituents and to estimate the antimicrobial activity of the isolated compounds.
