Production of Terretonin N and Butyrolactone I by Thermophilic TM8 Promoted Apoptosis and Cell Death in Human Prostate and Ovarian Cancer Cells.

The anticancer activity of terretonin N () and butyrolactone I (), obtained from the thermophilic fungus TM8, was intensively studied against prostate adenocarcinoma (PC-3) and ovary adenocarcinoma (SKOV3) human cell lines. According to this study, both compounds showed potent cytotoxicity towards ovarian adenocarcinoma cells (SKOV3) with IC 1.2 and 0.

A comparison of chiral resolution of antifungal agents on different polysaccharide chiral columns under various mobile phase modes: Application in the biological samples.

The current article describes the chiral separation of tioconazole, miconazole, isoconazole, sertaconazole and terconazole, with Lux i-Cellulose 5 and Lux i-Amylose-1 chiral columns under organic polar, normal and reversed mobile phases modes. The mobile phase flow rate was 1 mL/min with 230 nm detection at 25 ± 1 °C temperature. The polar organic mobile phases offered certain advantages for separation such as short analysis time, order of elution, high plate numbers and favorable signal to noise ratio.
