Journal ArticleDOI
Caryophyllene-rich rhizome oil of Zingiber nimmonii from South India: Chemical characterization and antimicrobial activity
Baby Sabulal,Mathew Dan,Anil John J,Rajani Kurup,Nediyamparambu Sukumaran Pradeep,Renju Krishna Valsamma,Varughese George +6 more
TL;DR: The antimicrobial activity of the oil showed significant inhibitory activity against the fungi, Candida glabrata, C. albicans and Aspergillus niger and the bacteria Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and no activity was observed against the fungus Fusarium oxysporum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ethnomedical information and in vitro screening for angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition of plants utilized as traditional medicines in Gujarat, Rajasthan and Kerala (India)
Ulf Nyman,P Joshi,L.B Madsen,T.B Pedersen,M Pinstrup,S. Rajasekharan,Varughese George,Palpu Pushpangadan +7 more
TL;DR: Four species of plants utilized as traditional medicines in India were found to possess a high ACE inhibiting ability and were low in their tannin content.
Journal ArticleDOI
Near‐infrared Fourier transform Raman, surface‐enhanced Raman scattering and Fourier transform infrared spectra and ab initio calculations of the natural product nodakenetin angelate
J. Binoy,Jose P. Abraham,I. Hubert Joe,Varughese George,V. S. Jayakumar,Jean Aubard,O. Faurskov Nielsen +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed ab initio SCF Hartree-Fock computations using the 6-31G basis set for geometry optimization for the prediction of IR and Raman spectral activities and wavenumber calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vibrational spectroscopic studies on the natural product, columbianadin.
TL;DR: The CH stretching and bending vibrations of CH3 groups of the ester part indicate the presence of hyperconjugation effect and characteristic ring vibrations have been identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
