Abstract
Phytochemical investigation of the methanolic extract of Aegle marmelos (L.) Corr. (Rutaceae) roots resulted in the isolation of two new diterpenic coumarin ethers characterized as 8-(2´,6´,10´,14´-tetramethylhexadec-5´,13´-dien-3´-oxo) coumarin (2) and 8-(2´,6´,10´,14´-tetramethylhexadec-13´-en-3´-oxo) coumarin (3) and two new sesquiterpenic coumarin ethers identified as 8-(4´,10´-dimethyl-7´-isopropenyl-4´-hydroxy-6´-oxo-decalin) coumarin (4) and 8-(4´,10´- dimethyl-7´-isopropenyl-4´,5´-dihydroxy-6´-oxo-decalin) coumarin (5) along with known compound n-hexacosan-1-ol (1). The structures of the isolated compounds were established by spectral data analysis.

Ayurvedic medicinal therapeutic approaches for inflammatory and neurodegenerative disorders
Usually, in our elderly population, neurodegenerative disorders occur due to neuron death. Alzheimer?s disease (AD) is an irreversible and progressive neurodegenerative disease. Dementia is the leading cause of AD, which affects about 30 million people worldwide. According to the World Alzheimer report 2018, a new case of dementia develops every ...read more
Recent Advances in Biotransformation of Bioactive Terpenoids using Aspergillus niger
Biotransformation is the reaction catalyzed by biological catalysts of either isolated enzymes or whole cell cultures of microorganisms. This process has been extensively applied in the conversion of bioactive terpenoids with high regio- and stereospecifity. This process has been also applied in the lead discovery and development. Aspergillus niger has ...read more
