| novel antioxidant compounds from tart cherries (prunus cerasus). | as indicated by an fe(ii)-induced liposome peroxidation bioassay, the etoac extract of tart cherries (prunus cerasus) was found to have strong antioxidant activity. purification of this extract afforded chlorogenic acid methyl ester (1) and three novel compounds, 2-hydroxy-3-(o-hydroxyphenyl) propanoic acid (2); 1-(3', 4'-dihydroxycinnamoyl)-cyclopenta-2,5-diol (3), and 1-(3', 4'-dihydroxycinnamoyl)-cyclopenta-2,3-diol (4), as determined by their spectral data. at a 20-microm concentration, the ... | 1999 | 9917288 |
| synthesis and characterisation of methyl 2-o-(beta-d- glucopyranosyl)-6-o-(alpha-l-rhamnopyranosyl)-alpha-d-glucopyranoside. | the branched trisaccharide, 2-o-(beta-d-glucopyranosyl)-6-o-(alpha-l-rhamnopyranosyl)-d-glucopyranos e (2), is regarded as the sugar moiety of an anthocyanin pigment isolated from the fruits and flowers of certain begonia, clivia, rubus, prunus, and ribis species. the cyanidin-3-glycoside of 1 has been identified as one of the major pigments of montmorency cherries (prunus cerasus). it has also been isolated as quercetin and kaempherol glycosides from the flowers of potato (solanum tuberosum). s ... | 1990 | 2279247 |
| cherry fruit abscission: evidence for time of initiation and the involvement of ethylene. | initiation of abscission at the pedicel-fruit zone in the sour cherry (prunus cerasus l. cv. montmorency) occurs near the transition of stage ii to stage iii of fruit growth. the preinitiation phase is characterized by a high fruit removal force (frf) and explants prepared from fruits during this period do not undergo abscission as indexed by a reduction in frf. ethylene does not cause a significant reduction in frf either in attached fruit or in explants prepared during this period. by contrast ... | 1974 | 16658915 |
| comparative freezing patterns in stems of cherry and azalea. | ice formation in stems, as determined by means of an electrophoretic mobility technique, occurs much more rapidly in azalea than in sour cherry. the difference is more marked in the bark than in the wood. disrupting the structure of the tissues completely eliminates differences in freezing patterns, although gross anatomical differences do not appear to account for differences in species response. microscopic examination of frozen stems indicated that little redistribution of water occurred duri ... | 1972 | 16658210 |
| histochemical changes in the developing abscission layer in fruits of prunus cerasus l. | abscission layer formation in the sour cherry (prunus cerasus l.) during fruit maturation occurred in the transition zone between the fruit and the pedicel. the abscission layer, consisting of 5-8 rows of cells, was first identified by its low affinity for haematoxylin. the walls of cells in the abscission layer contained less total polysaccharides than adjacent cells. the pectins were degraded and the cellulose was partially broken down resulting in cell separation. the ca level in the abscissi ... | 1969 | 24515789 |
| metabolic changes in after-ripening seed of prunus cerasus. | metabolic changes were studied in embryonic axes and cotyledons isolated from after-ripening seeds of prunus cerasus. during the seventh week of after-ripening, a striking increase in the respiration rate at 25 degrees of embryonic axes occurred along with a sharp change from the dormant to non-dormant state of the seed. on the basis of c-6/c-1 ratio determinations this change may be related to an increased activity of the pentose phosphate cycle. | 1967 | 16656529 |
