Exposition to UV-A light stimulated the growth and synthesis of raspberry ketone in submerged cultures of the basidiomycete Nidula niveotomentosa. To investigate the fungus' response to UV-A light differentially expressed proteins were identified by means of 2D-electrophoresis. Light induced proteins

The protective effect of raspberry ketone against nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) was tested by using a high-fat diet-induced NASH model, and its mechanism was explored. Forty Sprague-Dawley rats with a 1:1 male to female ratio were randomly divided into five groups:
The title chiral amine, 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-methylpropylamine 5 has been synthesized from naturally abundant betuligenol 1 in three steps and also in good yield. Furthermore, the versatile intermediate 3 could be manipulated for the preparation of chiral disulphide 7. The amine derivative

Although plant tissue cultures have been in use for the past hundred years, adapting them for the production of aroma compounds started only in the 1970s. The use of tissue cultures in aroma production has its advantages, because plant cells

This study aimed to compare different methods of assessing dietary exposure to flavourings in the context of a stepwise approach. The dietary exposure to four flavourings--raspberry ketone, glycyrrhizinic acid, coumarin, and caffeine--was determined. When dietary exposure exceeded the safety limits
