As a direct write technology, the electrohydrodynamic printing of silver nanoparticles by using focused nanocolloid jet is introduced. In this letter, two categorized types examples two-dimensional patterning were printed method. A spiral-type inductor was to demonstrate feasibility as fabrication process. The spiral produced 9.45μH and exhibited approximately five times larger resistivity (9.5μΩcm) than that bulk after sintering Then, complex geometries having square- round-shape patterns...
Rosa damascena has been manufactured as various food products, including tea, in Korea. A new flavonoid glycoside, kaempferol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl(1-->4)-beta-D-xylopyranoside, named roxyloside was isolated from the buds of this plant, along with four known compounds, isoquercitrin, afzelin, cyanidin-3-O-beta-glucoside, and quercetin gentiobioside. The chemical structures these compounds were determined by spectroscopic analyses, FAB-MS, UV, IR, (1)H (13)C NMR, DEPT, 2D NMR (COSY, HSQC,...
Fabrication of a flexible organic solar cell is demonstrated with an anode that free tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) by electrohydrodynamic (EHD) spraying silver nanowires (Ag NWs). This methodology applicable to fabricate patterned Ag NW thin-film electrodes for cells (OSCs). By optimizing the spray parameters and post-processing conditions, transparent sheet resistances ∼11 Ω sq−1 (on glass) ∼20 polyethylene terephthalate, PET) DC optical conductivities ∼70 can be obtained at transmittance...
Triterpenoid saponins (TSs) are common plant defense phytochemicals with potential pharmaceutical properties. Platycodon grandiflorus (Campanulaceae) has been traditionally used to treat bronchitis and asthma in East Asia. The oleanane-type TSs, platycosides, a major component of the P. root extract. Recent studies show that platycosides exhibit anti-inflammatory, antiobesity, anticancer, antiviral, antiallergy However, evolutionary history platycoside biosynthesis genes remains unknown. In...
A new cycloartane-type triterpene glycoside, agroastragaloside V (1) was isolated from the roots of Astragalus membranaceus. The structure identified as 3-O-β-(2'-O-acetyl)-D-xylopyranosyl-6-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-(24S)-3β,6α,24α,25-tetrahydroxy- 9,19-cyclolanostane, by means spectroscopic methods, including HR-FAB/MS, 1D NMR (1H, 13C, DEPT), 2D (gCOSY, gHSQC, gHMBC, NOESY), and IR spectroscopy. Four known cycloartane glycosides, namely, I (2), II (3), isoastragaloside (4) astragaloside IV (5)...
A prenylated arylbenzofuran and six flavonoids were isolated from the fruits of Morus alba L. through silica gel, octadecyl Diaion HP-20 column chromatography. Based on nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, infrared spectroscopic data, chemical structures compounds determined to be artoindonesianin O (1), isobavachalcone (2), morachalcone (3), quercetin (4), astragalin (5), isoquercetin (6), rutin (7). The evaluated for protection HT22-immortalized hippocampal cells against...
Shikonin (SKN), a highly liposoluble naphthoquinone pigment isolated from the roots of Lithospermum erythrorhizon , is known to exert antibacterial, wound-healing, anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic, and antitumor effects. The aim this study was examine SKN antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). analyzed in combination with membrane-permeabilizing agents Tris Triton X-100, ATPase inhibitors sodium azide N,N ′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, S. -derived...
Brazilin, isolated from the methanol extract of heart wood Caesalpinia sappan, sensitizes cancer cells to apoptosis. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), which accounts for most cases central nervous system malignancy, has a very poor prognosis and lacks effective therapeutic interventions. We, therefore, investigated effects different concentrations periods exposure brazilin on cell proliferation apoptosis in glioma U87 line. Cell was by MTT assays growth curve analysis, assessed FACS analysis...
Panax ginseng has long been used as natural medicine and health food all over the world. Cancer is a major cause of death worldwide its prognosis likely depends on immune system during tumor treatment. In this study, berry polysaccharides were evaluated for their immunostimulant anti-cancer effects. Ginseng polysaccharide portion (GBPP) was to investigate effects anti-complementary activity, peritoneal macrophage activation, killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity. Moreover, both intravenous (i.v.)...
In the food industry and herbal markets, it is critical to control quality of processed Panax ginseng products. this study, ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled quadrupole time flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF/MS)-based metabolomics was applied for evaluation white (WG), tae-geuk (TG), red (RG), black (BG). Diverse metabolites including ginsenosides were profiled by UPLC-QTOF/MS, datasets WG, TG, RG, BG then subjected multivariate analyses. principal component analysis (PCA),...
Centella asiatica (L.) Urban contains two ursane-type triterpene saponins, asiaticoside and madecassoside, as major secondary metabolites. In order to select candidate genes encoding UDP-glucosyltransferases (UGTs) involved in biosynthesis, we performed transcriptomic analysis of leaves elicited by methyl jasmonate (MeJA). Among the unigenes, 120 isotigs 13 singletons unique sequences were annotated UGTs, including 37 putative full-length cDNAs, 15 UGT named according committee nomenclature...
