“…One previous chemical study on the essential oil obtained from D. lanceolata barks performed by our research group revealed that the major components were sesquiterpenes, -elemene, caryophyllene oxide, selinene, -eudesmol and humulene epoxide II using GC/MS (Sousa et al, 2012). In the present study, 37 compounds were identified, which accounts for 92.7% of the total oil content with the presence of mono-and sesquiterpenes.…”

“…This plant has been used as traditional medicine for various purposes such as anti-inflammatory, cicatrizing, analgesic, sedative and antimicrobial (Sousa et al, 2004(Sousa et al, , 2008. From the chemical point of view, -elemene, caryophyllene oxide, -selinene, -eudesmol and humulene epoxide II are the most concentrated components in the essential oil from barks and this oil has antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties (Sousa et al, 2012). In addition, the alkaloidal fraction produced a yield of 0.34% (Fischer et al, 2004).…”

The present study investigated the in-vivo and vitro bioactivities of the essential oil of Duguetia lanceolata branches (EODL) and caryophyllene oxide (CO). The chemical composition of EODL was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Acetic acid-induced writhing, formalin, hot plate and tail-immersion methods were used to evaluate the antinociceptive effect in mice. Anti-inflammatory activity was tested by carrageenan-induced paw edema and pleurisy in rats, and in mouse models of acute ear inflammation induced by croton oil and arachidonic acid. 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), reducing power and-carotene bleaching assays were used to determine the antioxidant bioactivity. -Elemene, caryophyllene oxide and -eudesmol were the major components found in EODL. When tested, EODL and CO reduced the number of writhes and both phases of the time of paw licking, while the reaction time on a hot plate and the pain latency duration by the tail-immersion assay were increased. EODL and CO were effective against the paw edema, exudate volume, leucocyte migration and ear edema. EODL and CO also showed in vitro antioxidant activity. These results suggest that caryophyllene oxide is one of the active compounds found in EODL and could partially justify the bioactivity of this oil.

Essential oils from the leaves, twigs and barks of Bocageopsis pleiosperma Maas were obtained by using hydrodistillation and analysed by using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. Several compounds (51) were detected and identified, being β-bisabolene the main component in all aerial parts of the plant, with higher concentration in the leaves (55.77%), followed by barks (38.53%) and twigs (34.37%). In order to increase the biological knowledge about the essential oil of Bocageopsis species, antimicrobial activities were evaluated against the microorganisms Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Enterobacter aerogenes, Candida tropicalis, Candida dubliniensis, Candida glabrata and Candida albicans. The essential oil obtained from the barks exhibited a moderate effect against S. epidermidis ATCC 1228 (MIC = 250 μg/mL), while the other oils did not exhibit antimicrobial activity. These results represent the first report about the chemical composition of B. pleiosperma and the first antimicrobial evaluation with a Bocageopsis species.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the chemical composition, and the trypanocidal and antibacterial activities of the essential oils from four species of Annonaceae: Bocageopsis multiflora (Mart.) R.E.Fr., Duguetia quitarensis Benth., Fusaea longifolia (Aubl.) Saff., and Guatteria punctata (Aubl.) R.A.Howard. The chemical composition of the essential oils from the aerial parts yielded 23, 20, 21 and 23 constituents, respectively, which were identified by GC/MS. The trypanocidal activity was evaluated against the amastigote and trypomastigote forms of T. cruzi. The antibacterial activity was evaluated by the microdilution method against enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus pyogenes, and methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The results of trypanocidal activity showed that the essential oils of the four species were active at the tested concentrations, with G. punctata essential oil being the most active, with IC50=0.029 μg/mL, and selectivity index (SI)=32, being 34 times more active than the reference drug benznidazole. All EOs showed strong antibacterial activity (minimum inhibitory concentrations of 4.68–37.5 μg/mL) against strains of S. mutans.
