Flavonoid that is selectively cytotoxic toward cancer cells. Induces mitochondrial ROS, DNA damage, and metabolic suppression, preferentially in tumor cells. Scutellarein has been shown to have better absorption than scutellarin in Caco-2 monolayer cells.
Polymethoxylated flavonoids occur in a number of plant families, including the Lamiaceae. To date, the metabolic pathways giving rise to the diversity of these compounds have not been studied. Analysis of our expressed sequence tag database for four sweet basil

A validated HPLC method was developed for the quantification of scutellarin in rat plasma using a liquid-liquid extraction and an ultraviolet detection. Chromatographic separation of scutellarin in plasma was performed on a C18 column, with a mobile phase of acetonitrile-water
Bezielle is a botanical extract that has selective anti-tumor activity, and has shown a promising efficacy in the early phases of clinical testing. Bezielle inhibits mitochondrial respiration and induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mitochondria of tumor cells but not

Antisolvent crystallization can be used as an alternative to cooling or evaporation for the separation and purification of solid product in the pharmaceutical industry. To improve the process understanding of antisolvent crystallization, the use of in-line tools is vital. In
Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is an infectious disease with a strong potential for transmission upon close personal contact and is caused by the SARS-coronavirus (CoV). However, there are no natural or synthetic compounds currently available that can inhibit SARS-CoV.
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
