Ischemic stroke is a severe neurological disorder with a high prevalence rate in developed countries. It is characterized by permanent or transient cerebral ischemia and it activates syndrome of pathological events such as membrane depolarization, glutamate excitotoxicity, and intracellular calcium

The monoterpene d-limonene has been shown to an effective, non-toxic chemopreventive agent in mammary and other rodent tumor models. The studies reported here investigated structure-activity relationships among limonene and three hydroxylated derivatives in the prevention of dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced mammary cancer.

The widespread use of scented products causes an increase of allergic contact dermatitis to fragrance compounds in Western countries today. Many fragrance compounds are prone to autoxidation, forming hydroperoxides as their primary oxidation products. Hydroperoxides are known to be strong

Limonene enantiomers and substrate analogs, including specifically fluorinated derivatives, were utilized to probe active site interactions with recombinant (-)-(4S)-limonene-3-hydroxylase (CYP71D13) and (-)-(4S)-limonene-6-hydroxylase (CYP71D18) from mint (Mentha) species. (-)-(4S)-Limonene is hydroxylated by both enzymes at the designated C3- and C6-allylic positions

The toluene-degrading strain Rhodococcus opacus PWD4 was found to hydroxylate D-limonene exclusively in the 6-position, yielding enantiomerically pure (+) trans-carveol and traces of (+) carvone. This biotransformation was studied using cells cultivated in chemostat culture with toluene as a carbon
