“…24 On the other hand, (+)-camphene was the major enantiomer in A. spectabilis , 25 A. procera , 28 and Russian A. sibirica (Table 3) essential oils. The only enantiomer of δ-3-carene in A. concolor foliar essential oil was (+)-δ-3-carene, consistent with that observed for A. firma , A. mariesii , 24 A. spectabilis subsp. langtangensis , 25 A. procera , 28 A. balsamea and A. sibirica (Table 3) essential oils.…”

Members of the Abies genus (Pinaceae) have been used in traditional medicines in their natural ranges, and essential oils derived from Abies species have found use in aromatic therapy. In this work, the foliar (leaves and twigs) essential oil of Abies concolor have been obtained from mature trees growing in southwestern Idaho and analyzed using gas chromatographic techniques. The essential oils were rich in α-pinene (15.2-20.5%), camphene (7.5-10.2%), β-pinene (24.2-25.6%), δ-3-carene (5.5-6.5%), limonene (5.4-6.9%), and bornyl acetate (14.6-22.1%). The dominant enantiomers for the major terpenoids were (+)-α-pinene, (–)-camphene, (–)-β-pinene, (+)-δ-3-carene, (–)-limonene, and (–)-bornyl acetate. The essential oil compositions are qualitatively similar to other Abies species, but the enantiomeric distributions for α-pinene, β-pinene, and camphene did reveal notable variation between Abies essential oils.

“…In previous studies, Satou et al 14 reported that the essential oils of Abies firma contained bornyl acetate, δ-cadinene, camphene, δ-3-carene, βcaryophyllene, α-humulene, isoledene, limonene, longifolene, α-muurolene, myrcene, α-pinene, and terpinolene. In contrast with this study, Chaudhary 15 showed that the major components of Cedrus deodara oil were αcedrene, α-himachalene, β-himachalene, and γhimachalene.…”

The essential oils of the genus Abies, Cedrus, and Picea belonging to Pinaceae were analyzed by GC-MS. From three essential oils of the genus Abies, Cedrus, and Picea, twenty-nine components were identified. The major compounds of Abies firma were bornyl acetate (27.1 %), δ-3-carene (16.3 %), α-pinene (14.0 %), β-caryophyllene (9.0 %), and camphene (6.1 %). The main constituents of Cedrus deodara oil were borneol (18.2 %), bornyl acetate (17.3 %), limonene (16.6 %), camphene (14.1 %), and α-pinene (6.7 %). The components of Picea abies were α-pinene (17.5 %), myrcene (16.7 %), β-caryophyllene (11.4 %), β-pinene (10.6 %), and γ-eudesmol (8.3 %).

“…Multiple studies have been dedicated to investigating the chemical compositions and antibacterial and antifungal activities of essential oils extracted from Abies plants ( Lee and Hong, 2009;Satou et al, 2011). Various bioactive compounds such as lignans and triterpenoids have been isolated from several Abies species (Roshchin et al, 1998;Kim et al, 1999).…”

The aim of this study was to compare the antibacterial effects of several essential oils derived from plants belonging to family Pinaceae and subfamily Abietoideae (cedar oil, fir oils derived from Silver fir Abies alba Mill. and Siberian fir Abies sibirica L., respectively) against some Gram-positive and Gramnegative bacteria. The Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion test for measuring zone diameters of bacterial growth inhibition was used. The fir oil derived from Silver fir Abies alba showed considerably more profound activity than the cedar oil and fir oil derived from Siberian fir Abies sibirica. Maximum antibacterial activity was shown by essential oil of silver fir oil against Escherichia coli, methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Silver fir essential oil was found to be active against K. pneumoniae while Siberian fir essential oil showed the mild activity of clear inhibition zone against P. aeruginosa and methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus. Silver fir essential oil has the highest antibacterial potential from all tested essential oils and could be a promising candidate concerning possible applicability in the prevention of bacterial growth. Moreover, essential oils may play an important role in the discovery of new drugs for the treatment of a wide range of pathogenic microorganisms in the near future. This study provides insight into the in vitro antibacterial activity of a wide variety of essential oils derived from many different plant genera against pathogenic bacteria. The data contributes to the ongoing scientific investigation regarding the application of essential oils as natural antibacterial agents.
