Chemical profile and antimicrobial activity of Boldo (Peumus boldus Molina) extracts obtained by compressed carbon dioxide extraction

Abstract: -This work reports the effects of temperature (20 to 50 o C) and pressure (100 to 250 bar) on the extraction yield, chemical characteristics and antimicrobial activity of extracts of Peumus boldus Molina obtained by compressed carbon dioxide extraction. Results showed that the extraction variables affect the extraction yield and the chemical distribution of the major compounds present in the extracts. The extracts were chemically analyzed with regard to 1,8-cineole, trans-sabinene, pinocarveol, pinocarvone, 4-… Show more

“…The strong antioxidant activity of the boldo extract may be related to the presence of 1,8-cineole and phytol compounds, previously identified in the GC-MS analysis, and reported earlier by Valle et al (2004), Mazutti et al (2008) and Netscher (2007), as compounds with antioxidant activity in boldo extract.…”

“…The gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms differ in several aspects other than with respect to the structure of their cellular walls, mainly with regard to the presence of lipoproteins and lipopolysaccharides in gram-negative bacteria that form a barrier to hydrophobic compounds [43,44] .…”

“…The Gram-positive and Gramnegative microorganisms differ in the structure of their cellular walls. The presence of lipoproteins and lipopolysaccharides in Gram-negative bacteria present a barrier to hydrophobic compounds such as mastic tree fixed oil (Zhao et al, 2001;Mazutti et al, 2008). This can explain the absence of bactericidal effect in the case of the two Gram-negative strains; S. typhimurium and E. coli.…”
