Herbs used as medicines are one of the widely adopted treatment alternatives which is in effect since ancient times. Herbal drugs are of great importance to the population because of its ease of availability and the relief of having no side effects. Majority of the herbal drugs are possessed to have more than one pharmacological effect. One such classic example of well-known herbal drug is Liquorice which is commonly known as Sweet Wood or Mulethi. Liquorice is available in dried root or rhizome form and it is widely used as natural sweetener, expectorant and as a hepato-protectant. The herb is widely grown in Baluchistan, Spain and in certain parts of Himalayan region of India. There are various active chemical compounds of Liquorice which include saponins and flavonoids. The pharmacological actions of this drug are attributed to its major active chemical compound named Glycyrrhizin. Liquorice is also found to have specific anti-viral activity against certain viral cells. The current article focusses on the pharmacognostic review of Liquorice and its uses. The multiple pharmacological effects of this drug and the future prospects of using Liquorice in developing formulations have been discussed in detail.

Formaldehyde is a very active chemical compound that easily reacts with other substances to form a large class of new compounds, many of which have important properties. Due to its reactivity, formaldehyde in a relatively short period of time has become one of the indispensable semi-products of large-tonnage organic synthesis.

AbstractKombucha is a beverage made by fermenting sugared tea using a symbiotic culture of bacteria belonging to the genus Acetobacter, Gluconobacter, and the yeasts of the genus Saccharomyces along with glucuronic acid, which has health-promoting properties. The paper presents the evaluation of ferments as a potential cosmetic raw material obtained from Yerba Mate after different fermentation times with the addition of Kombucha. Fermented and unfermented extracts were compared in terms of chemical composition and biological activity. The antioxidant potential of obtained ferments was analyzed by evaluating the scavenging of external and intracellular free radicals. Cytotoxicity was determined on keratinocyte and fibroblast cell lines, resulting in significant increase in cell viability for the ferments. The ferments, especially after 14 and 21 days of fermentation showed strong ability to inhibit (about 40% for F21) the activity of lipoxygenase, collagenase and elastase enzymes and long‐lasting hydration after their application on the skin. Moreover, active chemical compounds, including phenolic acids, xanthines and flavonoids were identified by HPLC/ESI–MS. The results showed that both the analyzed Yerba Mate extract and the ferments obtained with Kombucha may be valuable ingredients in cosmetic products.

Recent studies have revealed that a combination of chemical compounds enables direct reprogramming from one somatic cell type into another without the use of transgenes by regulating cellular signaling pathways and epigenetic modifications. The generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells generally requires virus vector-mediated expression of multiple transcription factors, which might disrupt genomic integrity and proper cell functions. The direct reprogramming is a promising alternative to rapidly prepare different cell types by bypassing the pluripotent state. Because the strategy also depends on forced expression of exogenous lineage-specific transcription factors, the direct reprogramming in a chemical compound-based manner is an ideal approach to further reduce the risk for tumorigenesis. So far, a number of reported research efforts have revealed that combinations of chemical compounds and cell-type specific medium transdifferentiate somatic cells into desired cell types including neuronal cells, glial cells, neural stem cells, brown adipocytes, cardiomyocytes, somatic progenitor cells, and pluripotent stem cells. These desired cells rapidly converted from patient-derived autologous fibroblasts can be applied for their own transplantation therapy to avoid immune rejection. However, complete chemical compound-induced conversions remain challenging particularly in adult human-derived fibroblasts compared with mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). This review summarizes up-to-date progress in each specific cell type and discusses prospects for future clinical application toward cell transplantation therapy.

Wood vinegar rice husk contains a chemical compound that can be used as a biopesticides. Wood vinegar contained compounds which estimated potential as repellent, antifeedant, antimicrobials, antioxidants, disinfectants and as preservatives. The content of chemical compounds in the wood vinegar must be identified. Identification were done by calculating the concentration of acid, phenol and an infrared spectrophotometer. Production of wood vinegar made by the pyrolysis process used pirolisator. Most of the wood vinegar obtained is evaporated using a rotary evaporator and partly extracted using the method of separating funnel. Compound of acid and phenol in wood vinegar evaporation were higher than the extraction of wood vinegar. These results were confirmed by an infrared spectrophotometer spectrum showed the functional groups of acid and phenolic compounds. Keywords: wood vinegar rice husk, acid, phenol, pyrolysis, infrared spetrofotometer

A simple theoretical consideration of the possibility of using deterministic chaos for a quantitative determination of trace amounts of chemical compounds is analyzed in terms of return maps. This allows the development of a general approach to find a calibration plot for a chemical compound determination, i.e. to find a one-to-one correspondence between a measured value and the concentration of a substance to be determined. As experimental verification of these theoretical results, we present a study of the effect of copper (II) ions on the transient chaotic regime in the BZ reaction catalyzed by ferroin in batch as well as of the effect of vanadium (IV) on the deterministic chaotic regime in the BZ reaction catalyzed by ferroin in a CSTR. These studies show that it is possible to quantify the response of transient chaotic regimes to chemical compounds, i.e. to construct a calibration plot for chemical compound determination using their effect on the chaotic dynamics in the BZ reaction. Moreover, these studies shown that vanadium (IV) affects the chaotic regimes at concentration levels of the order of 10-12 g/mL , which gives the best detection limit for the kinetic methods of trace analysis.

This research is aimed to indentify the chemical compounds in Dammar resin. By identifying the chemical compounds in Dammar resin, it can be utilized optimally and the possibility of using it as alternative fuel can be recognized. This research will be carried out using analysis method of Gas Chromatographic-Mass Spectrometric. In the first experiment, Dammar resin is dissolved in CHCl3, C6H14, CH3COOH and CH3OH. From the experiment, it was detected about 32 and 25 chemical compounds when using CHCl3 and C6H14 respectively. Meanwhile, there were 17 and 15 chemical compounds detected when using CH3COOH and CH3OH respectively. Applying these various solvents giving different results but fit out each others. In conclusion, Dammar resin has a promising potency to be developed as alternative renewable fuel energy.
