Application


  • Allelopathic effect of the methanol extract of the weed species-red sorrel (Rumex acetosella L.) on the growth, phytohormone content and antioxidant activity of the cover crop - white clover (Trifolium repens L.).: This study explores the use of methanol extracts from red sorrel to analyze their effects on white clover, revealing significant insights into allelopathic interactions and plant biochemistry (Lee IJ et al., 2024).

  • Improvement and prediction of the extraction parameters of lupeol and stigmasterol metabolites of Melia azedarach with response surface methodology.: Focuses on optimizing extraction parameters using methanol, enhancing the yield and purity of important plant metabolites, critical for pharmaceutical applications (Japelaghi RH, 2024).

  • Determination of cotinine and 3-hydroxynicotinine in human serum by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and its application.: This paper utilizes methanol as a solvent in chromatographic techniques to detect and quantify nicotine metabolites in serum, showcasing its importance in clinical diagnostics (Wu YQ, 2024).

Macrophages populate the steady-state myocardium. Previously, all macrophages were thought to arise from monocytes; however, it emerged that, in several organs, tissue-resident macrophages may self-maintain through local proliferation. Our aim was to study the contribution of monocytes to cardiac-resident macrophages
