ABSTRACT Concepts of sustainability have received attention from people involved in investigation of nature-derived matrices. The effects of concomitant pollutant activities are cumulative and harmful to the environment from which these matrices are obtained. High performance liquid chromatography analyses generate millions of litters of chemical waste worldwide every year. Reduction of organic solvent consumpt...
Brazilian biodiversity is a colossal source of secondary metabolites with remarkable structural features, which are valuable in further biodiscovery studies. In order to fully understand the relations and interactions of a living system with its surroundings, efforts in natural product chemistry are directed toward the challenge of detecting and identifying all the molecular components present in complex sample...
Chagas disease is one of the main public health problems in Latin America. Since the available treatments for this disease are not effective in providing cure, the screening of potential antiprotozoal agents is essential, mainly of those obtained from natural sources. This study aimed to provide an evaluation of the trypanocidal activity of 92 ethanol extracts from species belonging to the families Annonaceae, ...
