“…As possible explanation of this biological behavior, the mixture of major components and other compounds may exert an antagonistic effect. Similar trends were reported for some essential oils from Calamintha origanifolia and Artemisia annua by Formisano et al 45 and Cavar et al 46 , respectively.…”

We investigated the antioxidant and enzyme inhibitory activities and chemical composition of the hydro-distilled essential oil (0.35% yield) from aerial parts of Thymus spathulifolius. Antioxidant capacity of the oil was assessed by different methods including free radical scavenging (DPPH and ABTS), reducing power (FRAP and CUPRAC) and phosphomolybdenum assay. Inhibitory activities were analyzed against acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), a-amylase, a-glucosidase, and tyrosinase. Twenty-one constituents were identified representing 97.2% of the total oil with thymol (50.5%), borneol (16.7%) and carvacrol (7.7%) as the major components. The essential oil exhibited good antioxidant activity with IC 50 values of 3.82 and 0.22 mg/mL determined by free radical scavenging DPPH and ABTS, respectively. EC 50 values of FRAP and CUPRAC were found to be 0.12 and 0.34 mg/mL, respectively. The results of the present study support the uses of T. spathulifolius essential oil as a source of natural antioxidants and bioactivities for functional foods and phytomedicines.

“…In general, the antioxidative effectiveness of essential oil depends on the content of phenolic compounds (C´avar et al 2012;Haşimi et al 2014). It is known that essential oils obtained from plants belonging to the Artemisia genus are markedly rich in non-phenolic constituents (Lopes-Lutz et al 2008).…”

Chemical composition of the essential oils obtained by hydro-distillation from Artemisia annua L. (Asteraceae) harvested before flowering (BF), 50% of flowering (50%F), full flowering (FF), and after flowering (AF) stages were determined using GC and GC/MS analysis. The essential oil contents were 0.8%, 0.96%, 1.22% and 1.38% in BF, 50% F, FF and AF, respectively. In total, 20 compounds were identified, with artemisia ketone (28.30%-37.15%), camphor (18.00%-23.30%), and 1,8-cineole (9.00%-10.39%) as main components. The highest amounts of the three main components were recorded in the essential oils of the plants harvested in the FF stage. Also, the free radicals scavenging activity of the essential oils, tested by using DPPH method, were found to be in order of FF>50% F>AF>BF. ÖZETÇiçeklenme öncesi (ÇÖ), % 50 çiçeklenme (% 50 Ç), tam çiçeklenme (TÇ) ve çiçeklenme sonrası (ÇS) dönemlerinde hasat edilen Artemisia annua L. (Asteraceae)'dan su distilasyonu yöntemiyle elde edilen uçucu yağların kimyasal kompozisyonu GC ve GC/MS kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Uçucu yağ içerikleri ÇÖ, % 50 Ç, TÇ ve ÇS dönemlerinde sırasıyla % 0.8, % 0.96, % 1.22 ve % 1.38 bulunmuştur. Toplamda 20 bileşenin tespiti yapılmış olup, artemisia ketone (% 28.30-% 37.15), camphor (% 18.00-% 23.30) ve 1,8-cineole (% 9.00-% 10.39) ana bileşenler olarak belirlenmiştir. Üç ana bileşene ait en yüksek değerlere tam çiçeklenme döneminde hasat edilen bitkilerin uçucu yağlarında kaydedilmiştir. Ayrıca, DPPH yöntemiyle test edilen uçucu yağların serbest radikal yakalama aktivitesi TÇ˃% 50 Ç˃ÇS˃ÇÖ sırasında bulunmuştur.

“…In conclusion, our results showed that the essential oil from G. pulchella possessed good antioxidant activity, which made it a potential natural antioxidant. The antioxidative effectiveness of essential oil from G. pulchella may be related to its content of phenolic compounds 17 , such as 2-Naphthalenol, 2, 3, 4, 4a, 5, 6, 7 -octahydro-1, 4a-dimethyl-7-2-hydroxyl-1-methylethyl 3.94 . Additionally, the antioxidant activity may be due to the presence of some terpenoids, including limonene 2.31 , α-cadinol Total Identified 92.63 a Compounds are listed in order of their elution from a DB-5 column.…”
