“…Essential oils extracted from members of the Lamiaceae family were also instrumental in a study by Kumar et al [15]. The authors evaluated the influence of Nepeta leucophylla, Nepeta ciliaris, Nepeta clarkei and Calamintha umbrosa in the control of pathogens responsible for damage to several food crops.…”

Essential oils are secondary metabolites whose biological properties have been studied with emphasis on antimicrobial activity. Hyptis carpinifolia Benth (Rosmaninho) is used in folk medicine in the fight against colds and rheumatism. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the essential oil from H. carpinifolia. The essential oil was extracted by hydrodistillation using a modified Clevenger apparatus. The biological activity was determined using the Agar Cavity Diffusion technique to evaluate the effect of concentrations of 500, 250, 125, 62.5, 31.25, 15.62, 7.81 and 3.9

“…These enzymes are involved in ATP biosynthesis (Chen et al 2013; Nazzaro et al 2017) as well as H + -ATPase activity; inhibiting these processes leads to intracellular acidification and cell death (Ahmad et al 2013). The inhibition of mycelial growth also depends on the concentration of EOs (Dambolena et al 2010; Gömöri et al 2013; Sumalan et al 2013; Kumar et al 2014; Elgorban et al 2015; Perczak et al 2016). In addition, a majority of plant EOs display high biological safety and are classified as “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) (Kedia et al 2014).…”

Antifungal activity of selected essential oils against Fusarium culmorum and F. graminearum and their secondary metabolites in wheat seeds

Essential oils (EOs) are products of plant origin and include mixtures of different chemical compounds. These volatile substances have many interesting properties, including antifungal properties. Fungi may develop under field conditions on crops such as wheat or corn and are able to synthesize mycotoxins, which adversely affect livestock and human health. In the present study, selected EOs were used to inhibit the growth of Fusarium graminearum and F. culmorum and reduce the concentrations of mycotoxins in wheat grain. The EOs significantly inhibited the growth of tested Fusarium species (90.99–99.99%), as determined based on ergosterol quantitative analysis. Only the addition of orange oil to F. culmorum exhibits a different inhibition capacity (68.13%). EO application resulted in a large reduction in zearalenone content (99.08–99.99%); only in the case of orange oil application was the reduction estimated at approximately 68.33%. However, all EOs provided a significant reduction in the concentration levels of group B trichothecenes (94.51–100%). It can be concluded that EOs inhibit the growth of fungi of the genus Fusarium and reduce concentration levels of the mycotoxins zearalenone and group B trichothecenes.

“…Investigations report that Nepeta oils are quite effective in controlling the decay of food crops. In a study by Kumar, Mathela, Tewari, and Bisht (), the antifungal activities of essential oils of Nepeta leucophylla Benth., Nepeta ciliaris Benth., and Nepeta clarkei against F. oxysporum , H. maydis , A. solani , R. solani , Sclerotonia sclerotiorum , C. lunata , and A. candida were investigated. The most effective ones were found to be the oils consisting of oxygenated terpenoids.…”

“…In particular, plants possess economically and therapeutically valuable metabolites; therefore, plant products gained extensive importance to be used for medicinal purposes (Balandrin, Klocke, Wurtele, & Bollinger, ; Yildirim, Karakas, & Turker, ). One of the most important plant families that have great economic value as medicinal, cosmetic, and food products is the family Lamiaceae, which is composed of about 252 genera and more than 6,700 species and commonly distributed in temperate regions (Hedge, ; Kumar, Mathela, Tewari, & Bisht, ; Lawrence, ).…”

Medicinal plants have always had great value for the human population due to their valuable constituents and potential bioactivities. The objective of this review is to present an updated overview of an important medicinal plant genus Nepeta L., from the family Lamiaceae, revealing its traditional utilization, biological activity, phytoconstituents, and mechanisms of action. For this purpose, a literature survey was carried out by using SciFinder, ScienceDirect, Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science followed by a revision of the bibliographies of the related articles. We have described and analyzed the role of plants in drug discovery and the importance of Nepeta species. Information on the utilization purposes of Nepeta species in folk medicine has been emphasized, and scientific studies on the biological effects and secondary metabolites are addressed. Nepeta species are characterized by terpenoid-type compounds and phenolic constituents, which exert several activities such as an antimicrobial, repellent against major pathogen vector mosquitoes, insecticide, larvicide against Anopheles stephensi, cytotoxic anticarcinogen, antioxidant, anticonvulsant, analgesic, anti-inflammatory agent, and antidepressant, revealing its importance in medicinal and agricultural fields. On the basis of numerous studies, the Nepeta genus demonstrates remarkable therapeutic effects against various diseases. However, clinical studies are warranted to confirm preclinical findings.
