The importance of protected areas in providing ecosystem services and biodiversity conservation is recognised all over the world by numerous authors. The study aimed to establish a diagnosis of the dynamics of the land use types in the protected area, assess the state of the plant diversity conservation and analyse the structure of the forest ecosystems still preserved in the Wildlife Reserve of Togodo. To this end, the study was based on the analysis of satellite images at three various including Landsat 7 and Landsat 8.

Phenolics are generally widely distributed in the plant kingdom and are the most plentiful secondary metabolites of plants. Plant polyphenols have pinched increasing attention due to their effective antioxidant properties and their marked effects in the prevention of a variety of oxidative stress related diseases such as cancer. The antioxidant content of fruits and vegetables may contribute to the protection they put forward from disease.

The investigations using the molecular mechanics technique with good approximation confirmed structural X-ray data for vitamin D2. The calculation of bond lengths and bond angles provided new structural information for vitamin D2 derivatives containing chalcogens (sulfur, selenium or tellurium) in oxygen site. The comparison showed that most of the bond lengths of the substituted compounds are similar, with the exception of the key bonds Ch-H and Ch – C(3), which grow linearly with the ionic radii of chalcogens.
