Manufacturing and characterization of craft beers with leaves from Benth.

The increase in the manufacture of craft beers follows the boost in the consumption of this beverage. Meanwhile, brewers face a drawback with beer aging, its flavor's change. The addition of compounds that overcome this downside is one alternative used by brewers.

Anti-inflammatory activity and chemical composition of aqueous extract and essential oil from leaves of Ocimum selloi Benth.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: The population uses the aqueous extract as tea from leaves of Ocimum selloi Benth. (alfavaca) for pain and inflammation issues. This study is motivated by a lack of data about inflammation properties of O.

Influence of temperature on survival and cuticular chemical profile of social wasps.

The cuticle of social insects is a barrier against desiccation and a channel for chemical communication, two characteristics fundamental to the success of this group. The compounds present in the cuticle interact dynamically in order to achieve a balance between these two functions. Thus, viscosity correlates with waterproofing, whereas fluidity correlates with effective communication.
