TL;DR: In this article, 2-isopropenyl-3-methylphenol (CARP), a minor component of carqueja essential oil, was synthesized starting from carquejol and characterized by using Fourier Transform infrared (FT-IR) and Raman spectroscopies, Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-visible) spectroscopy, Electron Impact Mass spectrometry (EI-MS), Hydrogen and Carbon Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H- and 13C-NMR) and 2D 1H 1H g

TL;DR: The antioxidant and antimicrobial potentials of volatile oil and oleoresins of white pepper (Piper nigrum L.) was investigated in this paper, where the white pepper essential oil has shown strong activity for the inhibition of primary and secondary oxidation products in mustard oil added at 0.02% concentration which was evaluated using peroxide value and thiobarbituric acid value.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that high level of phenylpropanoids in the kernel pericarp is a trait associated to less disease severity and fumonisin accumulation caused by F. verticillioides.

TL;DR: The non-polar extract of the tubers of Lepidium meyenii Walpers yielded two benzylated alkamides (macamides), N-(3,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-hexadecanamide and N-benzyltetracosanamide, which were elucidated based on 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the pericarp and its wax content are resistance factors to fumonisin accumulation in most genotypes assayed, and other kernel factors could not be excluded.
