“…These results corroborate other reports 16 , which obtained a yield substantially close (0.07%). However, there is a difference with the results from other studies with a yield of 1.3% 29 . The variation observed in the extraction yield could be due to many factors, including the effect of the climate variation, the nature of the geographical site, the quality of the soil, and the harvesting period, which could impact the quality and amount of the volatile fraction.…”

To contribute to control bacterial infections, we proposed evaluating the antibacterial activities and modes of action of Aeollanthus heliotropioides essential oil and its hydroethanolic extract. Solvent extracts and essential oil were obtained from the aromatic plant's aerial parts by hydroethanolic maceration and hydro-distillation. The analyses of the chemical composition were performed using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. The microdilution method evaluated the in vitro antibacterial potential of the essential oil and solvent extracts. The Inhibition of biofilms formation was carried out using a colorimetric biofilm microdilution assay with crystal violet as a dye. The effect of extract and essential oil on the release of nucleic acids was performed using a spectrophotometric method. The time-kill kinetic assay was assessed for hydroethanolic extracts and essential oil. The extraction yield was 0.1%, and the major compounds identified in the essential oil were linalool (43.47%) and cis-α-farnesene (42.67%). The phytochemical screening revealed flavonoids, saponins, phenols, triterpenes, catechin tannins, and quinones. Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MICs) ranged from 2.08 mg/mL to 10 mg/mL. Concerning the modes of action, the essential oil showed its bactericidal effect at 2 hours. The reduction of Escherichia coli biofilms formation was found at 0.21 mg/mL. The essential oil treatments resulted in a release of nucleic acids at a concentration of 2.1 mg/mL. These results justify using the essential oil and hydroethanolic extracts of Aeollanthus heliotropioides as a potential source of molecules with antibacterial activity.

“…Studies by Simionatto et al [34] with isolated compounds from A . suaveolens analyzed by bioautography showed that the lactone monoterpene massoialactona exhibited excellent antibacterial property to Salmonella Setubal and Bacillus subtilis microorganisms, being active in the minimum concentration that was tested (3.125 μg.mL -1 ).…”

“…suaveolens , where the synergistic effect of monoterpene compounds and sesquiterpene appears to potentiate the toxicity against the larvae of A . salina , the antimicrobial isolates proved to be the most isolated active compounds (massoialactona) of all the essential oil components [34]. However, it is important to note that synergistic or antagonistic effects should not be excluded from antimicrobial activity [37].…”

Aeollanthus suaveolens species popularly known as catinga de mulata belongs to the Lamiaceae family. In the Amazon region, it is used in folk medicine for the treatment of gastritis, convulsions of epileptic origin, stomach pain and diarrhea in the form of tea and juice. Essential oils have analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activity. This study evaluated the chemical composition of the A. suaveolens essential oil, and its cytotoxic, antimicrobial and antioxidant activity on Artemia salina Leach. The plant species was collected in Fazendinha district in the city of Macapa-AP. The essential oil obtained from the process was performed by hydrodistillation and identification of components by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometer. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by the kidnapping method of 2,2- diphenyl -1-picrilhidrazil radical, while the cytotoxic activity was assessed using saline A. and the microbiological activity was carried out by microdilution method with Escherichia coli, Salmonella sp. and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. In a chromatographic analysis, the major constituents found in the essential oil of A. suaveolens were (E) -β-farnesene (37.615%), Linalool (33.375%), α-Santalene (3.255%) and linalyl acetate (3.222%). The results showed that the Escherichia coli and Salmonella sp. bacteria were more susceptible to MIC 50 mg.mL-1 when compared with the Staphylococcus aureus bacterium MIC 100 mg.mL-1. With respect to MBC concentration of 100 mg.mL-1 it was sufficient to inhibit the growth of E. coli. The essential oil did not show antioxidant activity, however, has a high cytotoxic activity against the A. salina, LC50 8.90 μg.mL-1.

“…Although many of the monoterpenes have not been previously evaluated on yeasts, antibacterial and antifungal activity of essential oils with a high concentration of the monoterpenes included in the present work have been reported. For example, Mentha spicata essential oil with high content of carvone (51.7%) and carveol (24.35%), and the essential oil of Aeolanthus suaveolens with a high concentration of linalool (34.2 to 34.9%) exhibited antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi (Hussain et al., 2010; Simionatto et al., 2007), and commercial essential oils of cinnamon, oregano, marigold, clove, and laurel oil inhibited the growth of several food yeasts, including S. cerevisiae , with MIC values ranging from 7.8 to 500 mg/L (Çoskun et al., 2016). Eventual discrepancies of antifungal activities of essential oils or terpene on yeasts or fungi have been attributed to differences in experimental conditions and extraction procedures, as well as microbial species and strains used in each work (Bakkali et al., 2008; Cowan, 1999).…”

Plants produce a large number of molecules with potential biological activity, such as alkaloids, terpenoids, phenolic compounds, among others. Essential oils are a complex mixture of low molecular weight metabolites, isolated from vegetal material by hydrodistillation and with application in folk medicine and fragrance industries (Turek & Stintzing, 2013).The main constituents of plant's essential oils are terpenes, particularly monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, and also phenolic compounds, among other volatile chemical groups. Monoterpenes (C10) are hydrocarbons formed by two isoprene units and can be aliphatic or cyclic. Moreover, monoterpene derivatives or monoterpenoids can contain several functional groups, being classified as alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, or esters (Bakkali et al., 2008).The biological proprieties of several essential oils and their chemical constituents have been reviewed by several authors, and include cytotoxic, antimicrobial, antitumor, pro-and antioxidant, stimulant, and allelopathic activities, among others (Andrade
