Bioassay-guided fractionation of Cladosporium cladosporioides (Fresen.) de Vries extracts led to the isolation four compounds, including cladosporin, 1; isocladosporin, 2; 5′-hydroxyasperentin, 3; and cladosporin-8-methyl ether, 4. An additional compound, 5′,6-diacetylcladosporin, 5, was synthesized by acetylation compound 3. Compounds 1–5 were evaluated for antifungal activity against plant pathogens. Phomopsis viticola most sensitive fungus tested compounds. At 30 μM, 1 exhibited 92.7,...

<title>Abstract</title> Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors represent a newer class of anti-cancer agents that play key role in both epigenetic and non-epigenetic regulation, leading to cancer cell death, apoptosis, cycle arrest.. These are being tested numerous clinical trials against various diseases, including hematological solid malignancies. In the present study, we synthesized novel bicyclic hydroxamic acid derivatives them vitro I IIb HDACs investigate their inhibitory activity...

In this research, composites of layered double hydroxide (LDH) with three Jordanian natural raw materials; Tripoli (T), Pozzolana (P) and Feldspar (F) were prepared by co-precipitation have been used for feed seawater pre-treatment. The data reveals that percent adsorption decreased increase in initial concentration, but the actual amount adsorbed ions per unit mass LDH/T-P-F increased metal ion concentrations. values ?Go negative within 21 to 26 KJ/mol, while ?Ho ?So positive range 0.1 25...

Lichens have widely been used as bioindicators to reflect the quality of environment. The present study was conducted investigate lichens diversity that grows on surface waste heaps from an abandoned old copper mine in Mlynky, Slovakia. In spite heavy metalcontaminated environment, we documented twenty species selected site. Taxonomically most numerous group were represented by Cladonia with seven species, well other species; namely, Acarospora fuscata, Cetraria islandica, Dermatocarpon...
