Twenty-five monoterpanes from six types of essential oils and hydrogenated turpentine oil have been identified and their stable carbon isotope composition determined.Monoterpanes in essential oils sourced from terrest...
Monoterpenoids are widely existing in indoor air.A GC-MS method was established for determination of monoterpenoids in the indoor air by using silonite coated canisters(SUMMA canisters),and preconcentrating low level ...
The acaricidal activities of fourteen essential oils and fourteen of their major monoterpenoids were tested against house dust mites Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus. Five concentrations were used over two different tim...
A new cytotoxic saponin(1). Julibrosides J(27), was isolated from the stem barks of Alibizia. julibrissin by chromatography, and the structure was elucidated as 3-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->2)-beta -D- fucopyranosyl ...
