Lignin monomers
Lignans (General)
Stephanie Saey and Zelinda Taylor worked to oxidize the three lignin monomers in the Fall 2017/Spring 2018. An updated report of the research can be viewed here: Oxidation of Lignin Monomers
Eugenol/Methyl Eugenol/Methyl Chavicol (from Clove or Basil)
- Previous work by Matt (Amad Pauzi)
- Current (Fall 2016) work by Sarah Lang.
Enzymatic oxidation of Methyl Eugenol and Methyl Chavicol
Curcumin (from Turmeric)
- Project started (Fall 2016) by Stephanie Saey and Nadia Ayala; continued into Summer 2017 by Stephanie Saey
Please visit the following link for an updated report: Curcumin Research
- Reference; purification from plant material.
Chlorogenic Acid (from green coffee beans)
- Project started by Chris_Knutson.
- Current project on isolation from green coffee beans by Alan Kuhlemier.
References
- Five ways to Isolate Chlorogenic acid.
- Microwave assisted extraction with other references to standard solvent extractions.
Working with Plant Material to Recover Biophenols
Essential Oils From Basil
Project starting the summer 2017, but additional work on "steam distillation" was started in Fall 2016 by Ben Stillwell and Selene H.
Extraction and Characterization of Essential Oils from Basil Varieties
References:
