Antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of selected red seaweeds from Central ...
Freitas, Marta V.; Inácio, Leonardo G.; Ruas, Ana; Silva, Isabela A.; Mouga, Teresa; Pereira, Leonel; Afonso, CléliaThroughout the ages, macroalgae have provided humankind with elements beneficial to human health, and often with bioactive abilities. Yet, while today we fully acknowledge such potential, especially that of the most widely known species, an even greater number of species remain unaknowledged. This holds particularly true for the highly diverse phylum Rhodophyta (red seaweeds) and, therefore, the present study a...

Chemical Characterization and Bioactivity of Commercial Essential Oils and Hydr...
Ruas, Ana; Graça, A.; Marto, Joana; Gonçalves, Lídia; Oliveira, Ana; Silva, Alexandra Nogueira da; Pimentel, Madalena; Moura, Artur MendesEssential oils (EOs) and hydrolates (Hds) are natural sources of biologically active ingredients with broad applications in the cosmetic industry. In this study, nationally produced (mainland Portugal and Azores archipelago) EOs (11) and Hds (7) obtained from forest logging and thinning of Eucalyptus globulus, Pinus pinaster, Pinus pinea and Cryptomeria japonica, were chemically evaluated, and their bioactivity...
