TL;DR: A lectin from Vatairea macrocarpa Duke seeds (VML) was isolated using affinity chromatography on a guar gum column and size-exclusion chromatography indicated that VML is predominantly a dimeric protein, although tetramers and larger aggregates were also present.

TL;DR: A lagoa de Jijoca de Jericoacoara, Ceara, Brazil, has been studied in this paper, where a composicao floristica e a estrutura da comunidade of macrofitas aquaticas presentes presentes in the lagos have been levantamento.

TL;DR: Os resultados mostraram that ambos os oleos apresentaram atividade biologica significativa, particularmente o oleo essencial de C. leucomalloides, o qual foi capaz of matar 98,7% das larvas numa concentracao de 100 ppm.

TL;DR: The results indicated the presence of the following activities: cellulase, amylase, anticoagulant and larvicide against A. aegypti in the water extract of C. ferrea seeds, but the extract did not show the other activities assayed: acute toxic activity, hemolytic, heparinasic, antibacterial and antifungal activities.

TL;DR: Os oleos essenciais obtidos por hidrodestilacao das folhas de quatro especies de Piper, coletadas no estado do Ceara, foram analisados por CG-EM and descreve, pela primeira vez, a composicao quimica dos oleo essenciaIS de P. dilatatum e P. tuberculatum.
