“…Changes in the essential oil compositions might arise from several environmental, chemical, seasonal, geographical and genetic differences (Delamare et al, 2007). Essential oils antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic and relaxing properties have been described both in animals and humans (Tognolini et al, 2006).…”

“…α-Pinene and β-pinene (monoterpenes) are found in Origanum vulgare L. Lamiaceae essential oil, while eugenol (phenolic) is found in Rosmarinus officinalis L. Lamiaceae essential oil (Tognolini et al, 2006). Triterpenes isolated from Euphorbia L. species showed no toxicity on A. salina, while strong toxicity was noted in diterpenes (Santos et al, 2007).…”

RESUMO: "Estudo preliminar das propriedades moluscicidas e larvicidas de alguns óleosABSTRACT: This study aimed to evaluate the molluscicidal and larvicidal activity of some essential oils and phytochemicals from medicinal plants. Molluscicide and larvicidal activity were determined by, respectively, the lethality bioassays using Artemia salina Leach. Artemiidae and Aedes aegypti L. Culicidae larvae. Essential oils from Eugenia uniflora L. Myrtaceae, Laurus nobilis L. Lauraceae, Origanum vulgare L. Lamiaceae and the phytochemicals α-pinene and eugenol presented citotoxicity toward Artemia salina with CL 50 values between 9.59 and 253.43 µL/mL. Essential oils from E. uniflora, M. piperita, O. vulgare and R. officinalis showed embryotoxicity on Aedes aegypti larvae with a viability inhibition between 40 and 100%. These results show the bioactivity of the assayed essential oils and phytochemicals and, partially, justify their insertion in further evaluation in order to establish a safe exploitation of their biological potentiality.

“…The antiplatelet activity and the inhibition of clot in guinea pig and rat plasma by 24 different essential oil were recently screened [35]. OQLO showed potent antiplatelet activity against ADP, Arachidonic Acid and the Thromboxane A2 agonist U46619, moreover a good ability to destabilize clot retraction was observed.…”
