Heat stress resistance of foliar photosynthetic apparatus was investigated in the Mediterranean monoterpene-emitting evergreen sclerophyll species Quercus ilex. Leaf feeding with fosmidomycin, which is a specific inhibitor of the chloroplastic isoprenoid synthesis pathway, essentially stopped monoterpene emission and resulted in the decrease of the optimum temperature of photosynthetic electron...

Production, transformation and essential oils composition of leaves and stems of lemon verbena [Aloysia triphylla (L’Herit.) Britton] grown in Portugal. More than seventy compounds, including 13 n-alkanes, were identified by GC and GC-MS in essential oils from leaves of lemon verbena [Aloysia triphylla (L’Herit.) Britton] plants harvested and analysed with intervals of around two months during ...

The essential oil from the aerial parts of Salvia sclarea L., growing wild in Tajikistan, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatography – mass spectrometry. A total of 59 compounds were identified representing 94.2% of total oil composition. Major components of the essential oil were linalyl acetate (39.2%), linalool (12.5%), germacrene D (11.4%), α-terpineol (5.5%), ger...

The chemical composition of laurel leaves and fruits essential oils (content of 0.917 and 0.747%, respectively) and laurel leaves extracts obtained at different pressures/temperatures by supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) were studied by GC-MS. The predominant compound in the essential oils and in CO2 extracts obtained at pressures/temperatures of 100 bar/40°C and 250 bar/40°C was 1,8-cineole...

The intensive use of antibiotics in aquaculture has resulted increased resistance among fish pathogens, and this situation led researchers to investigate the antibacterial properties natural resources. present study focused on an essential oil isolated from leaves Eucalyptus camaldulensis as a potential that could be used against Aeromonas caviae. Eighteen compounds were identified oil, represe...

The monoterpene compound has been reported to have antiviral activities . This study aimed test the in Melaleuca leucadendra inhibit SARS-CoV-2 virus. monoterpenes tested were α-Pinene, β-Pinene, Linalool, α-Terpineol, and Terpinene-4-Ol. method used was computational through pharmacophore analysis. indicator for quality of fit score. A score more than 50% indicates a good-quality compound, whi...

essential oil extracted from the leaves of myrtle, myrtus communis l. (myrtaceae)was tested in vitro for volatile toxicity against two stored-product insects (tribolium confusum and callosobruchus maculatus). the chemical composition of the plant oil was examined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (gc-ms). the major oil components were α-pinene (10.4%), α- terpineol (10.1%), linalool (9.0%...

The essential oil content in the inflorescence of lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.) cultivated in the mid hills of Uttarakhand was found to be 2.8 % based o n the fresh weight. The oil was an alysed by capillary GC and GC– MS. Thirty seven constituents, representing 97.81 % of the o il were identified. The major components of the oil were linalyl acetate (47.56 %), linalool (28.06 %), lav...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence and the mechanisms of cineole and terpineol on the in-vitro transdermal delivery of huperzine A from microemulsions, and their potential synergistic effect on the permeation enhancement. The transdermal delivery of huperzine A from microemulsions with different concentrations of cineole and terpineol through the rat abdominal skin wa...
