A methyltransferase enzyme catalysing the 3-O-methylation of isovanillic acid (3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzoic acid) by S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) was identified in Phanerochaete chrysosporium and purified. Gel filtration indicated an M(r) of 71,000 and SDS-PAGE showed that the enzyme was composed of two subunits of
Fifteen phenolic compounds were determined in rice grains by ultrasound assisted extraction and ultra-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array detection. Primarily, an UAE method has been developed and validated for the extraction of phenolics from rice grains. For the optimization

We applied coulometric detection (three electrochemical electrodes in series) to quantitate vanillic acid and isovanillic acid using reversed-phase HPLC. The formation of these reaction products from dihydroxybenzoic acid was used as a precise and reproducible measure of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) activity
The bioavailability and metabolism of anthocyanins and ellagitannins following acute intake of grumixama fruit, native Brazilian cherry, by humans, and its in vitro antiproliferative activity against breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231) were investigated. A single dose of grumixama juice was administered
