The larvicidal activity against Culex pipiens of all stereoisomers of dihydroguaiaretic acid (DGA) and secoisolariciresinol was measured, and these DGAs were found to be potent. Sixteen (-)-DGA derivatives were then newly synthesized to analyze their structure-activity relationship. Two derivatives monohydroxylated

Flaxseed, rich in the phytoestrogen lignan secoisolariciresinol diglycoside (SDG), provides protection against bone loss at the lumbar vertebrae primarily when combined with low-dose estrogen therapy in the ovariectomized rat model of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Whether SDG metabolites are accessible to skeletal
