In this research, a simple, rapid, and efficient air assisted - vesicle based microextraction (AAVME) approach was developed for the extraction of phenolic compounds and their analysis in different Melissa officinalis L. samples. The extraction metho...
Planktonic sea-urchin larvae actively ingest polyethylene microplastics (MP) that accumulate in the larval stomach and can be distinguished from natural food using polarized light microscopy. MP filtering rates were similar to those of natural partic...

There is evidence that microalgae phenolic compounds can inhibit the growth of toxigenic fungi. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of microalgae phenolic extracts to inhibit trichothecene production by Fusarium genus and thereby identify parame...
A method using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) was applied after extraction with acidified methanol, to determine 12 bioactive phenolic compounds in the peel and pulp of the mango fruit (Man...
SAR and QSAR in environmental research
