Bioactive substances of Colobanthus quitensis (Kunth) Bartl. from the Darboux and Lagotellerie Islands, western coast of Antarctic Peninsula

TL;DR: The diversity and multiple mechanisms of flavonoid action, together with the numerous methods of initiation, detection and measurement of oxidative processes in vitro and in vivo offer plausible explanations for existing discrepancies in structure-activity relationships.

TL;DR: In the rhizosphere, increasing evidence suggests that root specific chemicals (exudates) might initiate and manipulate biological and physical interactions between roots and soil organisms, and one-way signals that relate the nature of chemical and physical soil properties to the roots.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors present an overview of current knowledge of essential oils for application in pharmaceutical and medical industries as well as their potential as food preservatives in food industry, and present a review of the potential of EOs in the food industry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give a per- sonal account on the development of the field through a retrospective evaluation of their own research which covers approximately 40 complexes of flavonoids from different subclasses (rutin, quercetin, morin and hespe- ridin) with several metal ions or groups and suggest directions for future research.
