“…The yield and composition of C. sempervirens var. horizontalis oil are in a good accordance with previous studies of the same Saudi species or those of other similar flora, where α-pinene was the main component of cypress EO [21,[39][40][41][42]. Variations both in the yield and the abundant oil terpenes of plant oils have been recorded in previous reports [22,[43][44][45].…”

In order to find effective, biorational, and eco-friendly pest control tools, Cupressus sempervirens var. horizontalis essential oil (EO) was produced using hydrodistillation, before being analyzed with gas chromatography, specifically, using flame ionization detection. The monoterpene components α-pinene (46.3%), δ-3-carene (22.7%), and α-cedrol, a sesquiterpene hydrocarbon, (5.8%), were the main fractions. An oil-in-water nanoemulsion was obtained following a green protocol. The EO, its nanoemulsion, and its terpenes each exhibited both insecticidal and insect repellent activities against the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae. In a contact bioassay, the nanoemulsion induced a 100% adult mortality rate in a concentration of 10.0 µL/cm2 after 4 days of treatment, whereas 40 µL/cm2 of EO and α-cedrol was required to kill 100% of weevils. Using fumigation, nanoemulsion and EO at 10 µL/L air caused a 100% adult mortality rate after 4 days of treatment. The LC50 values of botanicals ranged between 5.8 and 53.4 µL/cm2 for contact, and between 4.1 and 19.6 µL/L for fumigation. The phytochemicals strongly repelled the weevil at concentrations between 0.11 and 0.88 µL/cm2, as well as considerably inhibiting AChE bioactivity. They were found to be safe for earthworms (Eisenia fetida) at 200 mg/kg, which also caused no significant alteration in wheat grain viability. This study provides evidence for the potential of using the EO of C. sempervirens and its nanoemulsion as natural, eco-friendly grain protectants against S. oryzae.

“…Distillation methods are divided into 3 as hydrodistillation distillation (Hydrodistillation -HD), steam distillation and vacuum distillation [16]. Microwave assisted hydro-distillation method can also be used to obtain essential oil by adjusting microwave parameters [17]. Hydro-distillation method was successful in examining to components of Anatolian Sage (Salvia fruticosa Mill.)…”

Electrospinning method used in nanofiber production is an economical method applied with high voltage electricity.Essential oils obtained from natural sources have antioxidant, antimicrobial and antifungal properties and are preferred in the production of nanomaterials by electro-spinning method. In this study, tangerine peel (citrus unshiu) essential oil (TPEO) was obtained by hydro-distillation method. The major one of the 10 components of the extract detected by Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GS-MS) was D-Limonene (%77.45). The composite nanofiber was prepared with 25% TPEO and polylactic acid (PLA). Nanofibers were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). According to the SEM results, it is seen that the essential oil is composited with prominent spheroidal structures in PLA nanofiber structure, and nanofiber diameter obtained is approximately 76.8 nm. Its decomposition temperature is about 320°C. Nanofibers obtained from tangerine peels and their antibacterial properties, can be recommended use for food preservation and medicine fields.
