“…In addition, diterpenes were one important category for the differentiation of the two groups, as two of them are among the top ten most significant VIPs. More specifically, pimaric and isopimaric acids, two isomer diterpenes characteristic of the Pinus species, seem to be major constituents of the Greek propolis samples and have been found before in propolis of the Mediterranean area [23,24]. Those ).…”

“…Generally, propolis samples are characterized by the presence of specific flavonoids [22][23][24][25][26][27][28]. Galangin, luteolin, chrysin, pinocembrin, pinobanksin, and two pinobanksin O-acetates are seven out of the ten most important VIPs that separate Greek samples from Chinese.…”

“…Another significant characteristic of the Greek propolis is the presence of terpenoids. Terpenes are a category of secondary metabolites that characterize propolis samples of the Mediterranean origin [22][23][24][25][26]29]. Diterpenes, triterpenes, and sesquiterpenes are predominant among the compounds that differentiate the Greek species.…”

Chemical composition of propolis depends on the plant source and thus on the geographic and climatic characteristics of the site of collection. The aim of this study was to investigate the chemical profile of Greek and Chinese propolis extracts from different regions and suggest similarities and differences between them. Untargeted ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled to hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) method was developed and 22 and 23 propolis samples from Greece and China, respectively, were analyzed. The experimental data led to the observation that there is considerable variability in terms of quality of the distinctive propolis samples. Partial least squares - discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) models were constructed and allowed the identification of significant features for sample discrimination, adding relevant information for the identification of class-determining metabolites. Chinese samples overexpressed compounds that are characteristic of the poplar type propolis, whereas Greek samples overexpress the latter and the diterpenes characteristic of the Mediterranean propolis type.

“…Wastes of this genus can be exploited to produce valuable compounds, essential oils isolated by different techniques from Pinus pinaster showed antioxidant activity (7,8) and also from other species (9,10) . Different species of genus Pinus showed anti-inflammatory, antitumor , antimicrobial, antioxidant and antiviral activities (11)(12)(13)(14) . Pinus sylvestris L. (Scot's pine tree) was mentioned in different scientific fields , It was also reported to contain a versatile array of secondary metabolites, including mono-, di-, sesqui-and triterpenes, flavonoids, stilbenes and lignans amongst other secondary metabolites (14) and also in the effect of thermal modification process on the size distribution of dust particles of Scots pine generated during lengthwise milling (15) .…”

Objectives: This study aims to isolate and identify valuable chemicals and pharmaceuticals from the waste of wood (Pinus sylvestris L.) industry and to determine their biological value. Methods: Chromatographic technique was used to isolate compounds from the waste. The chemical identity of the isolated compounds were evidenced by different spectroscopic analyses as well as comparative studies of reported data. The microbial transformed product of pinosylvin mono methyl ether was quantitatively determined using fluorimetric method. All the isolated compounds were tested for their antitoxoplasmosis activity (in vitro) against Toxoplasma gondii. Findings/ Novelty: Nine compounds were isolated and identified including three diterpenes : (1β -hydroxy dehydroabietic acid, 15-hydroxy dehydroabietic acid and Methyl-15-hydroxy dehydroabiet-18-ate) ; two aromatic aldehydes (coniferaldhyde and 3-hydroxy, 5-methoxy benzaldhyde) ; two stilbene derivatives; (Pinosylvin and Pinosylvin mono methyl ether) ; a flavan: (Pinocembrin) and a phytosterol (β -sitosterol). For the first time, the fluorimetric method was used for quantitative determination of the novel metabolite produced, E-Pinosylvin mono methyl ether 5-O-β -D-glucopyranoside, from the microbial biotransformation technique. All isolated compounds showed variable antitoxopasmosis activity, carried out for the first time, against T. gondii according to their % mortality and recorded EC 50 .

Siberian pine (Pinus sibirica), also known as Siberian cedar pine and Siberian cedar, is an important plant that has been long used as a source of natural compounds and materials (wood, needles, soft resin, turpentine, colophony). Its chemical composition has been studied well enough; however, to our surprise, no articles that compile the phytochemical data have been published so far. Presumably, this is due to the fact that most of the studies were published in journals difficult to access and not indexed by search systems. This review, for the first time, presents a systematic compilation of available data of secondary metabolites occurring in the needles, shoots, bark, wood, seeds, and oleoresin of Pinus sibirica.
