Chemical Composition, Antifungal and Antioxidant Activities of Hedyosmum brasiliense Mart. ex Miq. (Chloranthaceae) Essential Oils

et al. 2017

Background: Hedyosmum brasiliense Mart. ex Miq. (Chloranthaceae) is a dioecious shrub popularly used in Brazil to treat foot fungi and rheumatism. This work investigated the chemical composition, antifungal, and antioxidant activities of flowers and leaves of H. brasiliense essential oils; Methods: H. brasiliense male and female flowers and leaves were collected at Ilha do Cardoso (São Paulo) and the essential oils were extracted by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC/MS and their similarity compared by Principal Component Analysis. Antifungal activity was performed by bioautography and antioxidant potential by 2,2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) free radical scavenging and β-carotene/linoleic acid system; Results: The major compounds for all oils were sabinene, curzerene, and carotol, but some differences in their chemical composition were discriminated by Principal Component Analysis (PCA) analysis. Bioautography showed two antifungal bands at Rf’s 0.67 and 0.12 in all samples, the first one was identified as curzerene. The oils presented stronger antioxidant potential in β-carotene/linoleic acid bioassay, with IC50’s from 80 to 180 μg/mL, than in DPPH assay, with IC50’s from 2516.18 to 3783.49 μg/mL; Conclusions: These results suggested that curzerene might be responsible for the antifungal activity of H. brasiliense essential oils. Besides, these essential oils exhibited potential to prevent lipoperoxidation, but they have a weak radical scavenger activity.

“…plants, the number of leaves produced by the plant is very relevant. Previous studies have demonstrated that this is because the potential for essential oil production is directly related to the number of leaves on the plant, since the glands that produce the essential oil are found in this organ (ZUZARTE et al, 2010;AMARAL-BAROLI et al, 2016). *Averages followed by the same letter in the column do not differ from each other by Tukey's test at 5% probability.…”

“…It has been used in cuisines worldwide as a condiment and in the preparation of sauces. However, it is also used for the extraction of its essential oil, which contains high levels of natural compounds, such as phenylpropanoids and terpenoids (FLANIGAN;NIEMEYER, 2014;AMARAL-BAROLI et al, 2016). Basil essential oil has been widely used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and toiletry industries because of the antioxidant, antitumor, and antimicrobial capacity of its chemical compounds (FLANIGAN;NIEMEYER, 2014;TENORE et al, 2017).…”

Growth, Enzymatic Activity, and Antioxidant Activity of Sweet Basil Grown in Vitro

Sweet basil is a perennial herb. Studies on in vitro cultivation of these plant species are scarce and inconclusive. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of culture medium concentration in combination with antioxidants and plant growth regulators on the in vitro growth and biochemical activity of sweet basil seedlings. Seeds of the ‘Genovese’ cultivar were inoculated into Murashige and Skoog culture medium supplemented with activated carbon and plant growth regulators 6 -benzylaminopurine and a-naphthaleneacetic acid. The seedlings were grown under controlled conditions for 80 days and their biometric and biochemical characteristics evaluated. More abnormal seedlings were observed in the 100% medium with 30 g L-1 sucrose, 0.4 g L-1 6-benzylaminopurine, and 0.2 g L-1 a-naphthaleneacetic acid (T4) and the medium without regulators (T1). However, the T4 culture medium resulted in a higher leaf number and shoot dry mass. Antioxidant activity was higher in the seedlings grown in the culture medium composed of 100% medium + 3.0 g L-1 activated carbon + 0.4 mg L-1 6-benzylaminopurine + 0.2 mg L-1 a-naphthaleneacetic acid (T5) and that composed of 70% medium + 3.0 g L-1 activated carbon + 0.1 mg L-1 6-benzylaminopurine (T3). The enzyme superoxide dismutase showed higher activity in all culture media than catalase or ascorbate peroxidase. Sweet basil seedlings growing in T4 and T1 medium showed the highest growth rate of shoots and the lowest antioxidant activity, whereas seedlings grown in T3 medium had the highest catalase and ascorbate peroxidase activity.

“…Similar kinds of observation were also reported in Ruta graveolens and Leucojum aestiwum with an enhanced production of phenolic acids in callus and in vitro regenerated plants [35][36] . Likewise, esculin content was also observed quite high in in vitro cultures as compared to wild samples of T. officinale 12,[37][38] .…”

Taraxacum officinale is a well-known Indian traditional plant used to treat several kinds of ailments. Evolving industrial importance of herbal products in recent past, created a high demand of naturally occurring phytochemicals and their biosynthesis using plant tissue culture technology. Polyphenol and coumarin class of compounds are well known phytochemicals for several pharmaceutical applications including chemoprevention. In this paper we report a fast and renewable method for in vitro biosynthesis of quinic acid, protocatechuic acid, chlorogenic acid and umbelliferone from leaf derived in vitro cultures of Taraxacum
