Natural organic matter (NOM) of hydroxylated aromatic character can undergo catalyst-mediated self-coupling reactions to form larger molecular aggregates. Indeed, such reactions are central to natural humification processes. Nonhydroxylated persistent aromatic contaminants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are, conversely, inert with

Volatiles were isolated from the dried inner bark of Tabebuia impetiginosa using steam distillation under reduced pressure followed by continuous liquid-liquid extraction. The extract was analyzed by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The major volatile constituents of T. impetiginosa
The objective of this open-label, noncontrolled study was to evaluate the safety of a combination solution containing 4-hydroxyanisole (mequinol) 2%/tretinoin 0.01% (Solagé) with a sunscreen in the treatment of solar lentigines. The study included a total of 406 subjects for
In the current work we investigated for the first time the biochemical basis of 4-hydroxyanisole (4-HA) induced toxicity in B16-F0 melanoma cells. It was found that dicoumarol, a diaphorase inhibitor, and 1-bromoheptane, a GSH depleting agent, increased 4-HA induced toxicity
Compoundswith two phenolic OH groups like curcumin possess efficient antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. We synthesized p-cresol dimer (2,2'-dihydroxy-5,5'-dimethylbiphenol, 2a) and p-methoxyphenol dimer (2,2'-dihydroxy-5,5'-dimethoxybiphenol, 2b) by ortho-ortho coupling reactions of the parent monomers, p-cresol (1a) and p-methoxyphenol (1b), respectively. Their antioxidant
