Comparative metabolic profiling of vetiver (Chrysopogon zizanioides) and maize (Zea mays) under lead stress
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018)
Lead (Pb) contamination of residential soils in United States is attributed to use of Pb based paints prior to 1978 and their deterioration and accumulation in surface soils. Exposure to Pb due to ingestion and inhalation ...
Nischarin regulates focal adhesion and Invadopodia formation in breast cancer cells
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2018)
Background: During metastasis, tumor cells move through the tracks of extracellular matrix (ECM). Focal adhesions (FAs) are the protein complexes that link the cell cytoskeleton to the ECM and their presence is necessary ...
Terpenoids: Synthesis and biological activities
(Nova Science Publisher Inc., 2018)
Terpenoid is the naturally occurring compound synthesized from isoprene units. Terpenoid plays a variety of functions in the growth and development of plants. Most of the terpenoid perform chemical communications and defense ...
Bioactive carbohydrates
(Nova Science Publisher Inc., 2018)
Carbohydrates (also known as saccharides) are the chemical moieties composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Based upon their association they are known as monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. ...

(Nova Science Publisher Inc., 2018)
Flavonoid, the biggest class of secondary metabolite, are are found in vegetable, parsley, fruits, and wine. They are divided into distinct subgroups such as flavanols or catechins, flavones, flavanonols, flavanones, and ...
Polydopamine films change their physicochemical and antimicrobial properties with a change in reaction conditions
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
The morphology and physicochemical properties of polydopamine are not totally inherent and undergo changes with differing reaction conditions like the choice of solvent used for polymerization. The polymerisation of dopamine ...
Atypical leishmaniasis: A global perspective with emphasis on the Indian subcontinent
(Public Library of Science, 2018)
