TL;DR: Results showed that pongamol and karangin isolated from the fruits of Pongamia pinnata possesses significant antihyperglycemic activity in Streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats and type 2 diabetic db/db mice and protein tyrosine phosphatase-1B may be the possible target for their activity.

TL;DR: Karanjin, the major crystalline principle of karanja (Pongamia glabra Vent.) seeds, is shown to be a potent nitrification inhibitor that compares well with N-serve in pot-culture experiments with rice crop.
Abstract: Karanjin, the major crystalline principle of karanja (Pongamia glabra Vent.) seeds, is shown to be a potent nitrification inhibitor. It compares well with N-serve in pot-culture experiments with rice crop. Structure activity relationship studies with chemically altered molecules from karanjin show that its furan ring is essential for showing the inhibitory effect.

TL;DR: The antifungal, antibacterial and phytotoxicity results of pure compounds 1 and 2 as well as of the methanol and ethyl acetate crude extracts are also being reported.
Abstract: Pongarotene ( 1 ), a new rotenoid and karanjin ( 2 ), a known flavonol, were isolated from the seeds of Pongamia pinnata . The structure determination of these compounds were based on spectral anal...

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of various treatments on the functional and nutritional quality of karanja proteins were evaluated, such as water leaching, mild acid and mild alkali were found to bring down the levels of anti-nutrient components, while 2% hydrochloric acid improved the nutritional value by reducing the content of phytate, tannin and trypsin inhibitor activity.
