“…The antifungal activity of the citral chemotype of L. alba demonstrated in this study could be explained by a higher concentration of oxygenated monoterpenes, such as neral/geranial (54%) and nerol/geraniol (8.9%), which has been previously described by Oliveira et al (2006). Essential oils can be useful as antifungal agents because they affect several targets simultaneously and there are no reports of particular resistance or adaptation to essential oils by yeast (Bakkali et al 2008).…”

“…The antifungal activity of the essential oils of L. alba against human pathogenic fungi such as Candida albicans, Candida guilliermondii, Candida parapsilosis, Candida neoformans, Trichophytum rubrum and Fonsecaea pedrosoi has been previously demonstrated for the citral and myrcene-citral chemotypes (Oliveira et al 2006).…”

“…As espécies que foram encontrados nestes trabalhos são Plectranthus amboinicus e Chenopodium ambrosioides (Silva e Proença 2008, Oliveira et al 2011; Plectranthus barbatus, Lippia alba e Cymbopogon citratus (Pilla et al 2006;Vendruscolo e Mentz 2006); Lippia alba (Oliveira et al 2006). Segundo Vendruscolo e Mentz (2006), quanto maior o valor da porcentagem de Concordância Corrigida quanto aos Usos Principais para cada uma das espécies (CUPc), maior é o número de informantes que citou o uso principal para a espécie, portanto com maior concordância da população na indicação deste uso.…”

Etnobotânica de plantas medicinais em comunidades ribeirinhas do Município de Manacapuru, Amazonas, Brasil

2014

A utilização de plantas medicinais é uma prática comum entre as populações humanas. O presente trabalho teve por objetivo efetuar levantamento etnobotânico sobre o conhecimento e uso das plantas medicinais em quatro comunidades ribeirinhas do Município de Manacapuru. Foram coletadas informações de 164 moradores locais, selecionados aleatoriamente, por meio de entrevistas semi-estruturadas, observações participantes e visitas guiadas. Os problemas de saúde citados foram classificados de acordo com a Classificação Estatística Internacional de Doenças e Problemas Relacionados à Saúde (CID-10) e índices de concordância foram utilizados para identificar os principais usos de cada espécie. Identificaram-se 171 plantas medicinais, pertencentes a 65 famílias. Lamiaceae (14 espécies), Asteraceae (9 espécies), Fabaceae e Euphorbiaceae (8 espécies) foram as famílias mais comuns. As espécies mais citadas foram Mentha arvensis (hortelã), Ruta graveolens (arruda) e Citrus sinensis (laranja). As folhas foram as partes da planta mais utilizadas e a decocção da folha o procedimento mais comum usado para preparar medicamentos. Os problemas mais comuns citados foram doenças do aparelho digestivo, doenças do aparelho respiratório e problemas com sintomas não classificados. Plantas com índices de concordância maior que 25% Ethnobotany of medicinal plants in riverine communities of the Municipality of Manacapuru, Amazonas, Brasil ABSTRACTThe utilization of medicinal plants is a common practice among human populations. The present work aimed to carry out an ethno botanical survey to assess plant knowledge and use of medicinal plants by local people of four riverine communities at the municipality of Manacapuru. We collected information from one hundred and sixty-four local dwellers, selected at random, using semi-structured interviews, participant observations and guided tours. Health problems cited were ranked according to the International Statistic Classification of Diseases and Health Related Problems (CID-10) and agreement indexes were used to identify the main uses of each species. One hundred seventy-one medicinal plants were identified belonging to 65 families. The Lamiaceae (14 species), Asteraceae (9 species), Fabaceae and Euphorbiaceae (8 species) were to most common families. The most cited species were Mentha arvensis (mint), Ruta graveolens (common rue) and Citrus sinensis (sweet orange). Leaves were the most utilized plant part and leaf decoction the most common procedure used for preparing medicines. The most common problems cited were digestive tract ailments, respiratory system illnesses and problems with unclassified symptoms. Plants with agreement indexes greater than 25% were Plectranthus amboinicus, Chenopodium ambrosioides, Citrus aurantiifolia, Acmella oleracea, Plectranthus barbatus, Mentha arvensis, Citrus sinensis, Lippia origanoides, Lippia alba, Cymbopogon citratus and Ruta graveolens. These results confirm that populations living in Manacapuru still use medicinal plants as one of the ways of treating the...

“…Lippia alba occurs in all regions of Brazil (Zétola et al, 2002;Oliveira et al, 2006;Neto et al, 2009;Cunha et al, 2010;Teles et al, 2012;Vale et al, 2012;Soares et al, 2016). Due to its genetic variation, wide geographical distribution and exposure to different soil and weather conditions, and distinct seasons of collection, L. alba can produce EOs with different chemical composition, which expresses the occurrence of distinct chemotypes (Pascual et al, 2001;Hennebelle et al, 2008;Maffei et al, 2011;Teles et al, 2012).…”

Physiological responses of Rhamdia quelen (Siluriformes: Heptapteridae) to anesthesia with essential oils from two different chemotypes of Lippia alba

et al. 2017

The aim of this study was to evaluate if Lippia alba has different chemotypes according to the chemical composition of the essential oil (EO) considering collection site, and if the EO may have different effects on blood and plasma parameters in silver catfish, Rhamdia quelen, during and immediately after anesthesia. The citral (EO-C) and linalool (EO-L) chemotypes were identified, and both presented similar anesthetic effects for silver catfish. Fish were exposed to two concentrations of each EO, which induced slow and fast anesthesia (100 and 300 µL L -1 , respectively). Blood ions did not change at any time of anesthesia induction and recovery and, therefore, the electrolyte balance was not altered. Blood gases oscillated through all exposure and recovery times, but there was an increase in pO 2 after 10 min recovery in fish anesthetized with EO-C. Glucose increased in fish exposed to both EOs when compared with the control group. Overall, exposure to both EOs (except 100 µL L -1 EO-L at most times) reduced plasma cortisol levels compared to the control and/or ethanol groups. However, as plasma creatinine levels in fish anesthetized with EO-C were higher than control fish, the use of EO-L is preferable.Keywords: Blood gas, Cortisol, Glucose, Plasma ions, Silver Catfish.O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar se Lippia alba apresenta diferentes quimiotipos de acordo com a composição química do óleo essencial (OE), considerando local de coleta e se o OE causa diferentes efeitos nos parâmetros sanguíneos e plasmáticos em jundiá, Rhamdia quelen, durante e imediatamente após a anestesia. Os quimiotipos citral (OE-C) e linalol (OE-L) foram identificados e ambos apresentaram efeito anestésico semelhante para jundiá. Os peixes foram expostos a duas concentrações de cada OE, que induziram anestesia lenta e rápida (100 e 300 mL L -1 , respectivamente). Íons sanguíneos não se alteraram em nenhum tempo e consequentemente, o equilíbrio eletrolítico não foi alterado. Os gases sanguíneos oscilaram durante todo tempo de exposição e recuperação, mas houve aumento na pO 2 após 10 min de recuperação em peixes anestesiados com OE-C. Níveis sanguíneos de glicose aumentaram nos peixes expostos a ambos OEs quando comparados com o grupo controle. De um modo geral, a exposição a ambos OEs (exceto 100 µL L -1 OE-L na maioria dos tempos) reduziu o cortisol plasmático comparado aos grupos controle e etanol. No entanto, como os níveis de creatinina plasmática em peixes anestesiados com OE-C foram maiores que nos peixes controle, é preferível o uso do OE-L.
