It is a bright yellow pigment belonging to the chalcone class and is examined as a sensitizer for optoelectronic applications. It is observed that chelation of this dye with Ti ions results into a strong dye-TiO(2) charge transfer (DTCT) band in the visible region. This Ti-Isobutrin chelate is stable, irreversible and its formation is studied using Benesi-Hildebrand plot. The locations of HOMO-LUMO states of the Ti-isobutrin chelate and the corresponding band alignment with TiO(2) are obtained. Also, a thermal stability test revealed that isobutrin is stable above 100 degrees C.</p>10aButea monosperma10achalcone10adye-sensitized solar cell10aisobutrin10asensitizer10aTiO(2)1 aAgarkar, Shruti, A.1 aKulkarni, Roshan, R.1 aDhas, Vivek, V.1 aChinchansure, Ashish, A.1 aHazra, Partha1 aJoshi, Swati, P.1 aOgale, Satishchandra, B.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/isobutrin-butea-monosperma-flame-forest-promising-new-natural-sensitizer-belonging-001529nas a2200181   4500008004100000245009000041210006900131260000800200300001000208490000600218520089800224100002901122700002101151700002401172700001901196700002101215856011101236       2015                        eng d00aAntimycobacterium activity of coumarins from fruit pulp of aegle marmelos (L.) correa0 aAntimycobacterium activity of coumarins from fruit pulp of aegle  cJUL  a39-440 v53 a<p>Phytochemical investigation of n-butanol fraction of acetone extract of Aegle marmelos fruit has afforded four compounds coumarins marmelosin (1), marmin (2) and xanthotoxol (3) and flavonoid kaempferol 3- O-rhamnoside, afzelin (4).

Hyperglycemia is increasingly linked to the pathogenesis of diabetic complications in individuals with long-duration diabetes. One of the inevitable consequences of hyperglycemia is the enhanced accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), which are implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetes. Various natural products and their active constituents have reportedly been used for the treatment of diabetes and its complications. Some of these molecules are known to have anti-glycation activity. The search for novel anti-glycation agents from various sources is gaining a lot of importance. Attention has especially been focused on plants with an ethnopharmacological background and also on plants rich in triterpenoids and phenolics, which generally exhibit antioxidant and anti-glycation effects. Plant extracts or compounds obtained from them that possess both antioxidant and anti-glycation activities might have great therapeutic potential for treating diabetic complications. This review highlights the anti-glycation activities of phytochemicals, which will aid in the identification of lead molecules for the development of new anti-glycation drugs.</p>1 aChinchansure, Ashish, A.1 aKorwar, Arvind, M.1 aKulkarni, Mahesh, J.1 aJoshi, Swati, P.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/recent-development-plant-products-anti-glycation-activity-review-001851nas a2200193   4500008004100000245012800041210006900169260000800238300001200246490000600258520112400264100001901388700002901407700002501436700002401461700001901485700002101504856013201525       2015                        eng d00aRottlerin derivatives and other compounds from mallotus philippinensis fruits and their potential antimycobactrial activity0 aRottlerin derivatives and other compounds from mallotus philippi  cJUN  ae28-e300 v23 a<p>The methanolic extract of the fruits of Mallotus philippinensis afforded 13 compounds, 7,11-diketo-lanost-3-ol (1, as acetate), lanosta-8-ene-3β-ol (2, as acetate), pregnenolone (3, as acetate), trans-chalcone (4), kamalachalcone E (5), oleanolic acid (6), gallic acid (7), kaempferol (8), myricetin (9), 1-(5,7-dihydroxy-2,2,6-trimethyl-2 H-1-benzopyran-8-yl)-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-one (10), 4′-hydroxyisorottlerin (11), rottlerin (12), and shikimic acid (13).

Using TZM-bl cells, the extracts were tested for their ability to inhibit replication of two primary isolates HIV-1 (X4, Subtype D) and HIV-1 (R5, Subtype C). The activity against HIV-1 primary isolate (R5, Subtype C) was confirmed using activated PBMC and by quantification of HIV-1 p24 antigen. Both the extracts showed anti-HIV1 activity in a dose-dependent manner. The EC50 values of the acetone and methanol extracts of T. paniculata were 10.3g/mL. The enzymatic assays were performed to determine the mechanism of action which indicated that the anti-HIV1 activity might be due to inhibition of reverse transcriptase (77.7% inhibition) and protease (69.9% inhibition) enzymes. 1 aDurge, Ankita1 aJadaun, Pratiksha1 aWadhwani, Ashish1 aChinchansure, Ashish, A.1 aSaid, Madhukar1 aThulasiram, H., V.1 aJoshi, Swati, P.1 aKulkarni, Smita, S.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/acetone-and-methanol-fruit-extracts-terminalia-paniculata-inhibit-hiv-1-infection-vitro
