Bioactive molecules are those capable of interacting with living organisms, causing changes
in them. Wood extractives contain important amounts of these molecules, and some of them …

The extractives contained in wood are compounds with a very high added value in various
fields (eg, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, agri-food). These extractives can be classified into …

Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus) wood veneer trimmings, a waste product from the wood
board industry, were studied as source of bioactive compounds. Two extraction techniques …

Total amount and composition of extractives from 12 different tropical wood species were
determined by sequential extraction followed by silylation and GC, GC/MS analysis. Hexane …

Extractives are the wood constituents which can be extracted with neutral solvents. They are
obtained by extracting wood meal with organic solvents or water or by steam distillation, and …

Throughout the years, extractives have been studied with various analytical methods, and it
has been found that different tree species contain different types and amounts of extractive …

Beech (Fagus orientalis) and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) wood blocks were treated with
some commercial extracts as well as water-based wood preservative salts at various …

The main aim of this study was to evaluate pressurized hot water as a green and
environmentally friendly extraction medium for the isolation of phenolic compounds from …

Wood is a renewable resource and plays an important role in the world economy; however,
it is subject to attack from wooddegrading fungi and insects. Developing effective and low …

Extractives are non-structural wood molecules that represent a minor fraction in wood.
However, they are source of diverse molecules putatively bioactive. Inhibition of fungal …
