“…The EO from A. rosaeodora, rich in linalool, induced selective apoptosis in precancerous and cancerous skin cells and the vago-vagal bradycardic and depressor reflex in rats [6]. The EO of A. hostmanniana leaves, rich in benzyl benzoate, showed significant antimicrobial activity [7]. A. canellila EO and its main compound, 1-nitro-2-phenylethane (92%), displayed acetylcholinesterase inhibitory [8] and antioxidant activities [9], as well as cardiovascular [10] and antinociceptive effects [11].…”

Essential oils (EOs) from leaves and branches of Aniba parviflora (Meisn.) Mez were obtained by hydrodistillation and their chemical compositions determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Oxygenated sesquiterpenoids were the most representative compound class in both EOs ( 40%). However, the leaf EO was rich in β-phellandrene (15.1%), linalool (14.1%), and -eudesmol (12.9%). The EO from the branches showed high concentrations of -eudesmol (16.8%), β-caryophyllene (15.7%), linalool (12.4%), β-phellandrene (6.7%), and bicyclogermacrene (6.0%). The EOs were screened for radical-scavenging activity using the DPPH assay. In the DPPH assay, the EOs showed an antioxidant activity with TEAC values of 296.8 ± 20.2 and 357.3 ± 43.8 mg.TE.mL-1 , about one-third that of the Trolox standard. The EOs were subjected to antibacterial screening and displayed promising activity against Escherichia coli (MIC < 19.5 µg.mL-1). In addition, the EOs were tested for cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 breast tumor cells and the leaf EO (IC 50 = 67.9 ± 3.0 µg.mL-1) was more active than that from the branches (IC 50 = 102.2 ± 3.0 µg.mL-1).

“…Benzyl benzoate is the main constituent of Cananga odorata (Lam.) Hook & Thomson (ylang-ylang) [29] and Aniba hostmanniana (Nees) Mez (29.3%; GC-MS) essential oils [30], of volatile oils isolated from Solanum xanthocarpum Schrad & Wendl fruit (21.7%; GC-MS) [31], and from Senna hirsuta (L.), Irwin & Barneby (24.7%; GC-MS) [32]. Benzyl benzoate is a natural product known to be found in the essential oils of rosewood ( Dalbergia sissoo L.), cinnamon ( Cinnamomun verum Presl) and in balsam of Peru ( Myroxylon balsamum (L.) Harms).…”

Chemical analysis of Brasilimeria Stach, 1949 (Hexapoda, Collembola, Neanuridae) hemolymphatic secretion, and description of a new species

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Though Collembola is a widespread hexapod its use of chemical compounds for defense has been reported for only a few European species. Chemical composition analyses of the hemolymphatic secretion of Neotropical Collembola using Gas Chromatography with Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) has been performed for the first time. The GC-MS analysis revealed 32 constituents, such as aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, esters, alcohols, a phenol, an aldehyde and a ketone. Benzyl benzoate, the main component (at 46.98%), is a compound with known acaricide and insecticide properties. This is the first report on chemical constituents produced by Neotropical Pseudachorutinae, genus Brasilimeria , and will permit future secretion comparisons for Collembola. The taxonomic description of the species producing the secretion analyzed is provided; Brasilimeria assu sp. nov. (Collembola, Neanuridae, Pseudachorutinae) is the third known species of the genus; an updated diagnosis of the genus, an identification key, and further remarks on the species Brasilimeria Stach, 1949 are provided.

“…The EO samples of A. gardneri , A. hostmanniana, and A. riparia were rich in sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (4.8–65.5%), oxygenated sesquiterpenoids (10.7–43.5%), and benzenoids (3.2–45.4%) [ 12 , 68 , 69 ] ( Figure 2 ). The oils of A. hostmanniana (Aho2-L) and A. gardneri (Aga-L) showed benzyl benzoate (29.3% and 44.1%) and δ-cadinene (12.0% and 4.8%) as the most abundant compounds [ 12 , 68 ]. On the other hand, the majority compounds of A. riparia (Ari-Br and Ari-L) were ( E )-nerolidol (19.4%), β-caryophyllene (16.9%), elemol (16.2%), and α-humulene (14.9%, 10.9%) [ 69 ] ( Table 1 ).…”

“…The leaf oil of A. hostmanniana , dominated by benzyl benzoate (29.3%), δ-cadinene (12.0%), and β-caryophyllene (10.5%), was tested against the bacteria E. coli , P. aeruginosa , and K. pneumoniae (Gram-negative), and S. aureus (Gram-positive). Oil displayed significant MIC values to P. aeruginosa (900 μg/mL), S. aureus (900 μg/mL), and K. pneumoniae (1250 μg/mL), while to E. coli , the oil did not display sensitivity [ 68 ]. The essential oils of A. parviflora from Belém (PA, Brazil), containing β-phellandrene (15.1%), linalool (14.1%), and γ-eudesmol (12.9%) in the leaves, and γ-eudesmol (16.8%), β-caryophyllene (15.4%), and linalool (12.4%) in the branches, showed potent activity against E. coli (MIC: 19.5 μg/mL) and moderate activity against S. aureus (MIC: 625.0 μg/mL), S. epidermidis (625.0–1250.0 μg/mL) and P. aeruginosa (1250.0 μg/mL).…”

Lauraceae families have great diversity in the world’s tropical regions and are represented mainly by aromatic shrubs and trees with significant production of essential oils (EOs). This work presents a review of the EO chemical profiles from specimens of Aniba, including their seasonal variations, geographical distributions, and biological activities in the Amazon biome. Based on the survey, 15 species were reviewed, representing 167 oil samples extracted from leaves, twig barks, and woods. Brazilian Amazon was the most representative geographic area in the number of specimens, highlighting the locations Belém, (Pará state, PA) (3 spp., 37 samples), Santarém (PA) (3 spp., 10 samples), Carajás (PA) (3 spp., 7 samples), and Manaus (Amazonas state, AM) (3 spp., 16 samples). The main compound classes identified in oils were benzenoids and phenylpropanoids, represented by 1-nitro-2-phenylethane, benzyl salicylate, benzyl benzoate and methyleugenol, along with terpenoids, especially monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes, such as linalool, α-phellandrene, β-phellandrene, β-selinene, and spathulenol. The EOs from Aniba showed considerable variation in the chemical profiles according to season and collection site. The hierarchical cluster analysis classified the samples into two main groups according to chemical composition. This review highlights its comprehensive and up-to-date information on history, conservation, traditional uses, chemosystematics, pharmacological potential of Aniba species.
