“…Compounds indicative of quality deterioration and senescence onset, such as isoamyl alcohol, pentanal, ethanol, and neryl acetone, were also identified. This diversity in volatile composition can be attributed to factors such as plant genetic diversity, extraction methods, and harvesting timing and location (Durazzini et al ., 2019).…”

SummaryEugenia pyriformis Cambess (uvaia), a native species of the Atlantic Forest ecosystem, has received limited attention in scientific investigations. Renowned for its distinctive organoleptic characteristics, this fruit is suitable for immediate consumption and industrial processing. Additionally, it is rich in vitamins and bioactive compounds, which offer potential health benefits. These bioactive compounds, such as ascorbic acid, carotenoids, and phenolic compounds, have demonstrated antioxidant and antimicrobial properties in both in vitro and in vivo studies. This review consolidates recent research on uvaia, focusing on its chemical composition, biological activities, and potential applications within the food industry. It aims to lay the groundwork for future research and promote its recognition and utilisation in food production.

“…It is stated that in the production of essential oil from some medicinal and aromatic plants, products with different compositions can be obtained depending on the distillation time (Zheljazkov et al, 2013;Gölükcü et al, 2018;Durazzini et al, 2019;Anastasopoulou et al, 2020). Within the scope of the research, the effect of five different hydrodistillation periods on the yield and composition of sweet orange peel essential oil was investigated.…”

Within the scope of the study, the effect of hydro-distillation times on Citrus sinensis (Navelina) fresh peel essential oil composition was investigated. For this purpose, five different distillation times (10, 15, 30, 60, and 120 min.) were evaluated. Research findings showed that the distillation time was not effective on the orange essential oil composition. It was determined that the most important components of C.sinensis peel essential oil were limonene (96.52-96.61%) and myrcene (2.03-2.06%). In addition, hydrodistillation (HD) and cold press (CP) essential oils were compared in terms of yield and some physical and chemical properties. In terms of oil yield and optical activity, the values of the oil obtained by hydrodistillation method were higher than those obtained by cold press, and the refractive index and density values were found to be lower. In terms of component ratios, it was seen that there was no significant difference between the two methods.

“…The Cerrado has been known as one of the biomes with the highest biodiversity in the world. The biome stretches over approximately two million km 2 , which represents about 23% of the Brazilian territory [1]. Its plants have adapted to distinct environmental conditions, such as long droughts, high precipitation periods, poor soil, frequent fire occurrence and high UV radiation.…”

Chemical and pharmacological potentials of botanical species found in the Cerrado are well-known and widely studied. Chemical diversity of secondary metabolites produced by plants that belong to this Brazilian biome has triggered several studies in the fields of farming, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Therefore, this study aimed at evaluating the chemical composition of essential oils (EOs) from fresh leaves of three species found in the Brazilian Cerrado: Cardiopetalum calophyllum Schltdl. (EO-CC), Campomanesia adamantium (Cambess.) O. Berg (EO-CA) and Protium ovatum Engl. (EO-PO) and at determining their anti-Malassezia furfur and anti-inflammatory activities. Both GC-FID and GC-MS showed that the most abundant chemical class of the oils was the one of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons. The major constituents identified in EO-CC were germacrene D (34.9%) and bicyclogermacrene (26.8%). EO-CA exhibited mainly germacrene D (21.7%) while EO-PO had high concentrations of germacrene D (25.0%) and γ-muurolene (18.6%). EOs were tested by the broth microdilution method on 96-well microplates and exhibited satisfactory activity against M. furfur, i. e., EO-CA had MIC = 375 µg/mL while EO-CC and EO-PO HIGHLIGHTS• The sesquiterpene germacrene D was the major constituent in the three EOs under investigation.• EO from Campomanesia adamantium was considered active against Malassezia furfur.• All EOs exhibited in vitro anti-inflammatory activity by the chemotaxis model.• The most abundant metabolite class of all EOs under study was formed by sesquiterpene hydrocarbons.
