Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Agriculture

James E. Simon mostly deals with Botany, Essential oil, Horticulture, Polyphenol and Chromatography. His studies deal with areas such as Aroma and Camphor as well as Botany. His Essential oil research includes themes of Dry weight, Lamiaceae, Eugenol and Ocimum.

His study in Horticulture is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Linalool, Medicinal plants and Terpenoid. His Polyphenol study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Phenolic acid, Food science and Phenols. His biological study deals with issues like Genistein, which deal with fields such as Glycoside.

His most cited work include:

  • AMP-activated Protein Kinase Signaling Activation by Resveratrol Modulates Amyloid-β Peptide Metabolism (449 citations)
  • An investigation of the storage and biosynthesis of phenylpropenes in sweet basil. (372 citations)
  • Analysis of antioxidative phenolic compounds in artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) (324 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Botany, Horticulture, Agronomy, Essential oil and Ocimum. As part of his studies on Botany, James E. Simon frequently links adjacent subjects like Food science. In the field of Horticulture, his study on Cultivar overlaps with subjects such as Artemisia annua.

James E. Simon integrates Agronomy and Genetic resources in his studies. His Essential oil research incorporates elements of Dry weight and Eugenol. His works in Basilicum and Sweet Basil are all subjects of inquiry into Ocimum.

James E. Simon spends much of his time researching Horticulture, Polyphenol, Food science, Chromatography and Raspberry ketone. His Horticulture study typically links adjacent topics like Essential oil. His studies in Polyphenol integrate themes in fields like Toxicity, Pharmacology and Flavonoid.

In general Food science study, his work on Solanum scabrum often relates to the realm of 5-Hydroxy-L-Tryptophan, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His Raspberry ketone study which covers Bioavailability that intersects with Pharmacokinetics, Aroma and Phenolic acid. His study in the field of Basilicum is also linked to topics like Analysis of molecular variance.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A critical review on grape polyphenols for neuroprotection: Strategies to enhance bioefficacy. (25 citations)
  • Heterogeneity in gut microbiota drive polyphenol metabolism that influences α-synuclein misfolding and toxicity. (23 citations)
  • Rapid screening of toxic glycoalkaloids and micronutrients in edible nightshades (Solanum spp.) (15 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Agriculture

James E. Simon mainly investigates Food science, Polyphenol, Solanum scabrum, Chromatography and Detection limit. His work carried out in the field of Food science brings together such families of science as Methyl cinnamate and Rubus. The Polyphenol study combines topics in areas such as Traditional medicine, Bioavailability and Flavonoid.

James E. Simon interconnects Phytochemical, Berry and Solanum nigrum in the investigation of issues within Solanum scabrum. The subject of his Berry research is within the realm of Horticulture. He has included themes like Bioanalysis, Tandem mass spectrometry, Matrix and Microbial metabolism in his Detection limit study.
