“…The GC-MS method was used to identify secondary metabolites, such as alkaloids, sterols, polyphenols, terpenoids, and other chemicals, in plant extracts. Akkari, et al [57], Jaradat, Adwan, K'aibni, Zaid, Shtaya, Shraim, and Assali [7], and Barbouchi, et al [58] have all described the phytochemical analysis of R. chalepensis using the GC-MS method. However, this is the first report to use GC-MS to assess chemical homogeneity and to investigate the pharmacologically significant chemicals in a donor plant, ex-vitro-established micropropagated plants, and callus in R. chalepensis.…”

Efficient methods for callus induction and the high-frequency plant regeneration of Ruta chalepensis L. were established, and the phytochemical potential and antioxidant activity of a donor plant, ex-vitro-established micropropagated plants, and callus were also studied. Yellowish-green callus was induced with a frequency of 97.8% from internode shoot segments of the donor plant growing in soil in the botanical garden cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 10 μM 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) and 1 μM BA (6-benzyladenine). Adventitious shoots were regenerated from the yellowish-green callus on MS medium containing 5.0 μM (BA) and 1.0 μM 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), with a regeneration frequency of 98.4% and a maximum of 54.6 shoots with an average length of 4.5 cm after 8 weeks. The regenerated shoots were rooted in a medium containing 1.0 μM IBA (indole-3-butyric acid) and successfully transferred to ex vitro conditions in pots containing normal garden soil, with a 95% survival rate. The amounts of alkaloids, phenolics, flavonoids, tannins, and antioxidant activity of the ex-vitro-established micropropagated plants were higher than in the donor plant and callus. The highest contents of hesperidin and rutin (93.3 and 55.9 µg/mg, respectively) were found in the ex-vitro-established micropropagated plants compared to those obtained from the donor plant (91.4 and 31.0 µg/mg, respectively) and callus (59.1 and 21.6 µg/mg, respectively). The genetic uniformity of the ex-vitro-established micropropagated plants was appraised by the ISSR markers and compared with the donor plant. This is the first report describing the callus-mediated plant regeneration, as well as the production of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities in R. chalepensis, which might be a potential alternative technique for the mass propagation and synthesis of bioactive compounds such as hesperidin and rutin.

“…The results clearly showed that the leaves of A. abyssinica were rich in essential oil. Previous work has shown different parts of the same plant species had differences in their essential yields [21]. Same parts of plants growing in different geographical regions were also reported to have different essential oil yields.…”

“…The essential oil was further analyzed with GC-MS to furnish 11 constituents (Table 4), accounting for about 98.70% of the essential oil compositions. Essential oil of the aerial part of R. multifidus were rich in p-Mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol (38.82%) (14), octanal (3.82%) (17), nonanal (9.50%) (18), protoanemonin (8.59%) (19), pentadecanal (14.86%) (20), 1-naphthalenepropanol (7.48%) (5) and spathulenol (7.48%) (21). The chemical constituents detected in R. marginatus, sister species of R. multifidus, from Turkey were different from those detected herein from the aerial part of R. multifidus [32].…”

ABSTRACT. The essential oil compositions of Gladiolus candidus, Ranunculus multifidus, Artemisia abyssinica and Crinum abyscinicum were analyzed with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The principal components in the leaves, stems and rhizomes of G. candidus were eudesmol, 1-naphthalenepropanol and oleic acid, respectively. α-Terpineol, alloocimene and p-menth-2-en-1-ol from leaves, bulbs and roots were respectively the major constituents of C. abyscinicum. The aerial part of R. multifidus furnished p-mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol. Linalool and terpinenol were identified as the major constituents of A. abyssinica. The essential oils were evaluated for their antibacterial activity. Essential oil from leaves of G. candidus displayed zone of inhibition (IZ) of 15.1±0.3 and 16.7±0.9 mm against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively. Leaves essential oil of C. abyscinicum exhibited IZ of 17.9±1.1 and 15.6±1.1 mm against E. coli and P. aeruginosa, respectively, whereas essential oil from aerial part of R. multifidus displayed IZ of 18.8±0.8 and 19.4±0.6 mm against S. aureus and S. pyogens, respectively. At the same concentration, ceftriaxone showed IZ of 15.1±0.1, 16.2±0.8, 14.3±0.9 and 16.1±2.5mm against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and S. pyogens, respectively. The findings presented herein support the ethnobotanical uses of these plants against bacteria.

“…Other studies mentioned that in addition to ketones there are also alcohols, aldehydes, and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons with the presence of aliphatic monoterpenes traces (17,32,(52)(53)(54). Recently, Barbouchi et al found that chalepensin, elemol, and pentadecane-2,4-dione were the dominant compounds occurring in the volatile oil extracted from the roots of RM collected from Moulay Idriss Zerhoum, Morocco (49).…”

Ruta montana (RM) is a medicinal and aromatic plant (MAP) used in folk medicine, especially in North Africa, to treat digestive, infectious, respiratory, neurological, gynecological, and diabetic diseases. The current work aims to review the scientifically validated ethno-medicinal usage, bioactivities and phytochemistry of RM, in order to provide data support for further investigations. Data were procured from PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and PubChem. The present study revealed that RM could be used to manage many diseases involved in public health problems, such as diabetes, hypertension, neurological disorders, infections, reproductive system disorders, and cancer. It might also replace chemical insecticides and fungicides since it exhibits antifungal, insecticidal, and larvicidal properties. RM extracts also contain mainly coumarins and alkaloids. The volatile oil of RM is characterized by an abundance of ketone compounds and 2-undecanone as major constituents. In the case of a high-dose administration, RM infusion can cause poisoning through the oral path. Thus, in-depth in vivo pharmacological studies and clinical trials are needed to transmute the traditional applications of RM into scientific-based information.
