Macoligophones A-I, prenylated acetophenone dimers and monomers from Maclurodendron oligophlebium.

Chemical investigation of the bark of Maclurodendron oligophlebium resulted in the isolation of three prenylated acetophenone (PAP) dimers (1-3) and seventeen monomers (4-20). Among them, macoligophones A-I (1, 2, and 4-10) are previously undescribed. Utilizing chiral column, compounds 1-7 were separated into their individual enantiomers.

Crotonoids A-H, Labdane-Type Diterpenoids with Anti-Inflammatory Activity from Croton Sublyratus.

Croton sublyratus (Euphorbiaceae) is a traditional medicinal plant used by the Thai populace to treat helminthic infections and dermatologic conditions. In present study, eight new labdane-type diterpenoids, crotonoids A-H (1-8) and one known analogue (9) were isolated from the aerial parts of C. sublyratus.

In situ assessment of the initial phase of wastewater biofilm formation: Effect of the presence of algae in an aerobic bacterial biofilm system.

The initial start-up attachment stage that dominates biofilm formation is an unstable process and is time-consuming. In the present study, Chlorella sp. was introduced into a general aerobic biofilm system to explore whether the addition of algae improved the initial attachment phase of biofilm.

Unraveling biological behavior and influence of magnetic iron-based nanoparticles in algal-bacterial systems: A comprehensive review.

Magnetic iron-based nanoparticles have been found to stimulate algae growth and harvest, repair disintegrated particles and improve stability, and facilitate operation in extreme environments, which help improve the wide application of algal-bacterial technology. Nevertheless, up to now, no literature collected to systematically review the research progress of on the employment of magnetic iron-based nanoparticles in the algal-bacterial system. This review summarizes the special effects (e.
