The chemical composition of Porella arboris-vitae extracts was determined by solid phase microextraction, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME GC-MS), and 66 constituents were identified. The dominant compounds in methanol extract of P. arboris-vitae were β-caryophyllene (14.7%), α-gurjunene (10.9%), α-selinene (10.8%), β-elemene

The Meyer-Overton rule has been interpreted to mean that general anesthetics act at a nonpolar site, either in a lipid bilayer or a protein. Optical isomers, also called enantiomers, are pairs of compounds with the same molecular formula and functional

The metabolic fate of methyl n-butyl ketone (MnBK) and its isomer methyl isobutyl ketone (MiBK) was studied in mice. The concentrations of both ketones and their metabolites in blood and brain were measured at different time intervals after their administration.

The primary olfactory neuropil, the antennal lobe (AL) in insects, is organized in glomeruli. Glomerular activity patterns are believed to represent the across-fibre pattern of the olfactory code. These patterns depend on an organized innervation from the afferent receptor cells

In vitro systems of high biological organization, e.g. containing intact hepatocytes, have been considered as more reliable for metabolic studies and in vivo predictions of toxicokinetics than subcellular systems. For this reason, the kinetics and metabolism of low-molecular-weight volatile chemicals
