AI Article Synopsis
- A new monoterpenoid called nerol oxide-8-carboxylic acid and a new flavonoid glycoside named claulansoside A were discovered in the peels of Clausena lansium, alongside six known compounds.
- The structures of these compounds were identified using advanced techniques such as 1D and 2D NMR and HR-ESI-MS analyses.
- The study found that compounds 1 and 7 had antibacterial effects against Staphylococcus aureus, while compounds 3 and 6 demonstrated α-glucosidase inhibitory activity.
Article Abstract
One new monoterpenoid, nerol oxide-8-carboxylic acid (1), and one new flavonoid glycoside, claulansoside A (2), together with six known compounds, clausenamide (3), quercetin (4), isorhamnetin (5), dihydromyric (6), 2",3"-dihydroxyanisolactone (7) and (E,E)-8-(7-hydroxy-3,7-dimethylocta-2,5-dienyloxy)psoralen (8), have been isolated from the peels of Clausena lansium (Lour.) Skeels. Their structures were determined using a combination of 1D, and 2D NMR (HMQC, HMBC, COSY and NOESY) techniques, and HR-ESI-MS analyses. Compounds 1 and 7 exhibited antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus with the diameter of inhibition zones of 11.5 mm and 14.2 mm. Compounds 3 and 6 showed α-glucosidase inhibitory activity in vitro.

A purple-pigmented (purple) rice seeds containing an anthocyanin, a major class of flavonoids, and their isogenic non-pigmented (white) seeds were exposed outside of the international space station (ISS) to evaluate the impact of anthocyanin on seed viability in space. The rice seeds were placed in sample plates at the exposed facility of ISS for 440 days, with the bottom layer seeds exposed to space radiation and the top layer seeds exposed to both solar light and space radiation. Though the seed weight of both purple and white seeds decreased after exposure to outer space, growth percentages after germination of purple and white seeds in the top layer were 55 and 15 %, respectively, compared to those in the bottom layer 100 and 70 %, respectively.

This study compared the effects of seed treatment with low-pressure cold plasma (CP) and atmospheric dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma on morpho-biochemical traits in Bertoni plants cultivated by two methods: in soil and aeroponics. We investigated the impact of the treatments on the germination, plant growth, and content of secondary metabolites, namely steviol glycosides (SGs), rebaudioside A (RebA), and stevioside (Stev), as well as phenolic compounds and flavonoids. Seeds were treated for 2, 5, and 7 min with CP or DBD and 5 min with vacuum six days before sowing.
