High impact information on Limene

Three brominated bisabolene-type sesquiterpene derivatives, aldingenin B, C and D, together with cholesterol and palmitic acid, have been isolated from the red alga Laurencia aldingensis (Ceramiales, Rodophyta) and their structures elucidated by spectroscopic methods including NMR analysis [1].
Xanthorrhizol, a bisabolene isolated from the medicinal plant Iostephane heterophylla, was assayed on rat thoracic aorta rings to elucidate its effect and likely mechanism of action, by measuring changes of isometric tension [2].
A new bisabolene epoxide from Tussilago farfara, and inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis in LPS-activated macrophages [3].
