TL;DR: A GC-sniffing technique was used to correlate the single odor impression of the identified SPME headspace volatiles of the three investigated pepper samples with the following results: themain compounds such as beta-caryophyllene, germacrene D, limonene, beta-pinene, alpha-phellandrene and alpha-humulene, as well as minor constituents.

TL;DR: The essential oils of fresh leaves of Ocimum gratissimum and the essential oil of the dried fruits of Zanthoxylum xanthoxyloides showed extensive inhibition zones and are effective antimicrobial systems.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed and characterized low-cost mineral membranes for microfiltration application to produce clear water from high turbidity water, and they used them to deposit ultrafiltration and nanofiltration layers on the macroporous clay membranes to achieve high quality and potentially drinkable water.

TL;DR: The present work aimed to analyse the chronic toxicity of low doses of essential oils of Annona senegalensis Pers. (Annonaceae), Hyptis spicigera L. (Lamiaceae) and Lippia rugosa L.(Verbenaceae) to prevent grains from destruction from the maize weevil.

TL;DR: X. aethiopica essential oil could be a potential source of natural and low‐cost insecticide to control storage pests and a synergic effect of the compounds was observed that restored the mortality percentage observed for the oil.
