Prenatal exposure to a farm environment modifies atopic sensitization at birth (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Previous cross-sectional surveys have suggested that maternal exposure to animal sheds during pregnancy exerted a protective effect on atopic sensitization in children lasting until school
Okundoperoxide, a bicyclic cyclofarnesylsesquiterpene endoperoxide from <em>Scleria striatinux</em> with antiplasmodial activity (Publications)
Okundoperoxide (1) was isolated by bioassay-guided fractionation of extracts from Scleria striatinux (syn. S. striatonux). The compound contains a cyclic endoperoxide structural moiety and possesses m
