Arabidopsis thaliana
Arabidopsis thaliana, the thale cress, mouse-ear cress or arabidopsis, is a small plant from the mustard family (Brassicaceae), native to Eurasia and Africa.
See Pinoresinol and Arabidopsis thaliana
Brassica
Brassica is a genus of plants in the cabbage and mustard family (Brassicaceae).
Coniferyl alcohol
Coniferyl alcohol is an organic compound with the formula HO(CH3O)C6H3CH.
See Pinoresinol and Coniferyl alcohol
Dirigent protein
Dirigent proteins are members of a class of proteins which dictate the stereochemistry of a compound synthesized by other enzymes.
See Pinoresinol and Dirigent protein
Enterolignan
Enterolignans are organic compounds formed by the action of gut microflora on lignans. Pinoresinol and Enterolignan are lignans.
See Pinoresinol and Enterolignan
Forsythia × intermedia, or border forsythia, is an ornamental deciduous shrub of garden origin.
See Pinoresinol and Forsythia × intermedia
Forsythia suspensa
Forsythia suspensa, commonly known as weeping forsythia or golden-bell, is a species of flowering plant in the family Oleaceae.
See Pinoresinol and Forsythia suspensa
Hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia, also called low blood sugar, is a fall in blood sugar to levels below normal, typically below 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L).
See Pinoresinol and Hypoglycemia
In vitro
In vitro (meaning in glass, or in the glass) studies are performed with microorganisms, cells, or biological molecules outside their normal biological context.
Lignan
The lignans are a large group of low molecular weight polyphenols found in plants, particularly seeds, whole grains, and vegetables. Pinoresinol and lignan are lignans.
List of phytochemicals in food
The following is a list of phytochemicals present in commonly consumed foods.
See Pinoresinol and List of phytochemicals in food
Olive oil
Olive oil is a liquid fat obtained by pressing whole olives, the fruit of Olea europaea, a traditional tree crop of the Mediterranean Basin, and extracting the oil.
Pieris rapae
Pieris rapae is a small- to medium-sized butterfly species of the whites-and-yellows family Pieridae.
See Pinoresinol and Pieris rapae
Sesame
Sesame (Sesamum indicum) is a plant in the genus Sesamum, also called simsim, benne or gingelly.
Stereoselectivity
In chemistry, stereoselectivity is the property of a chemical reaction in which a single reactant forms an unequal mixture of stereoisomers during a non-stereospecific creation of a new stereocenter or during a non-stereospecific transformation of a pre-existing one.
See Pinoresinol and Stereoselectivity
Styrax
StyraxEtymology: Ancient Greek styrax (στυραξ), the spike at the butt-end of a spear such as a xyston or a sarissa.
