Abstract
Eupatorium serotinum Michx. (late thoroughwort, Asteraceae) is a perennial herbaceous plant that is common to the eastern United States. The plant has diaphoretic effects, and has a folk remedy usage as a fever reducer. Relatively little is known about the chemistry of this plant. To better understand the chemistry of this plant and for the identification of taxonomic markers for the plant, we have isolated three sesquiterpenoids from Eupatorium serotinum. The compounds were identified by NMR and MS spectroscopic methods.
Keywords: Sesquiterpenoid, Eupatorium serotinum, medicinal plants.

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
