Figure Lengend Snippet: Thermostability of physodalic acid, 3-hydroxyphysodic acid, physodic acid, atranorin, and chloroatranorin at three temperatures (40 °C, 60 °C, and 80 °C), with the control sample stored at room temperature. ( a ) A mixture of lichen compounds dissolved in DMSO was subjected to a 15-min incubation in an incubator at various temperatures. ( b ) A mixture of lichen compounds dissolved in acetone was exposed to temperature treatment using an accelerated solvent extraction (ASE) system. Data are mean ± SD ( n = 3), * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 compared to the control.
Article Snippet: The first method is based on the use of an Accelerated Solvent Extractor (ASE) (Thermo Scientific Dionex, ASE-350, New York, USA).
