Objective: To study the chemical constituents of the essential oil from the roots and rhizomes of Patrinia rupestris.

Method: The essential oil was extracted by steam distillation. The components were separated and identified by gas chromatography mass spectrometry and elucidated on the standard mass spectral data. Gas chromatography showed their percentages by area normalization method.

Results: Seventeen constituents were identified which make up 74.57% of the oil.

Conclusion: Transcaryophyllene (38.41%) was the main constituent, and other constituents include alpha-gurjunene, caryophyllene oxide, humulene, 9,12-octadecadienoic acid, etc.

Climate change policies are driving the oil and gas industry to explore CO injection for carbon dioxide storage in reservoirs. In the United States, a substantial portion of oil production relies on CO-enhanced-oil-recovery (CO-EOR), demonstrating a growing interest in using CO to address various production challenges like condensate mitigation, pressure maintenance, and enhancing productivity in tight reservoirs. CO injection introduces gases like natural gas and N, either pre-existing or as impurities in the injected CO gas.

Pyomelanogenic P. aeruginosa, frequently isolated from patients with urinary tract infections and cystic fibrosis, possesses the ability to withstand oxidative stress, contributing to virulence and resulting in persistent infections. Whole genome sequence analysis of U804, a pyomelanogenic, multidrug-resistant, clinical isolate, demonstrates the mechanism underlying pyomelanin overproduction.

The extraction of plant essential oils (EOs) and analysis by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) are standard methods when studying aromatic plants and the chemical composition of EOs. Here, two simple methods for the extraction of EO compounds from leaves of Thymus vulgaris are described. Organic solvent extraction and solid-phase microextraction (SPME), respectively, are used and the results of the GC-MS analyses are compared.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) and cancer are multifactorial diseases with significant health consequences, and their relationship with aging makes them particularly challenging. Epidemiological data suggests that individuals with DM are more susceptible to certain cancers. This study examined the bioactive properties of Hypericum scabrum extracts, including methanol, hexane, and others, focusing on their inhibitory effects on key enzymes associated with DM and neurodegenerative diseases, such as acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, α-amylase, and α-glucosidase.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the leading causes of infection worldwide due to its antimicrobial resistance. Plant-derived essential oils (EOs) have undergone extensive observational and clinical research to explore their antimicrobial properties. The present study aimed to check mec A positive MRSA isolates using sequencing analysis, determination of chemical composition using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS), antioxidant, and antimicrobial activity of Anethum graveolens and Piper betle EOs against the infectious agent MRSA.
