Psidium (Myrtaceae) comprises approximately 266 species, distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Psidium taxa have great ecological, economic, and medicinal relevance due to their essential oils’ chemical diversity and biological potential. This review reports 18 Psidium species growing around the world and the chemical and biological properties of their essential oils. Chemically, 110 oil records are reported with significant variability of volatile constituents, according to their seasonality and collection sites. Monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes with acyclic (C10 and C15), p-menthane, pinane, bisabolane, germacrane, caryophyllane, cadinane, and aromadendrane skeleton-types, were the primary constituents. The essential oils showed various biological activities, including antioxidant, antifungal, antibacterial, phytotoxic, larvicidal, anti-inflammatory, and cytotoxic properties. This review contributes to the Psidium species rational and economic exploration as natural sources to produce new drugs.

“…Studies on the chemical composition of EOA demonstrated the β‐caryophyllene (28.83%) and α‐Pinene (28%) as the major constituents (Chrystal et al., 2020; Savoldi et al., 2020; Soliman et al., 2016); while the chemical profile of the EOG reported β‐caryophyllene (26.6%), β‐bisabolol (19.5%), limonene (17.8%), and caryophyllene oxide (15.5%) as the major components (da Silva de Souza et al., 2017; Hassan et al., 2020; Mendes et al., 2017; Silva et al., 2019). Qualitative and quantitative variations of compounds in the same EOs are common since it is well established that chemotaxonomical differences, physiological age, harvesting seasons, plant parts, and/or extraction methods may affect the composition of EOs (Dhifi et al., 2016; Khadhri et al., 2014; Mohammadhosseini et al., 2017).…”

“…Most of the biological activities of EOs are strongly associated with their chemical composition. Although the chemical profile of EO from araçá and guava leaves has already been investigated (Bermúdez‐Vásquez et al., 2019; Chrystal et al., 2020; Hassan et al., 2020; Savoldi et al., 2020; Silva et al., 2019), additional studies are necessary since the high variability of chemical constituents can be influenced by external and internal factors of the plant. This information is of great relevance for the valorization of regional raw materials with outstanding biological potential.…”

The genus Psidium comprises several native Brazilian plants, such as the araçá and guava trees. They are interesting sources of essential oils (EOs) that can be used as natural preservatives in foods due to their bioactive properties. This work aimed to evaluate and correlate the biological properties of the EOs from araçá and guava leaves with their chemical compounds. The gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was used to determine the chemical composition of EOs. The antimicrobial activity was tested against 16 foodborne pathogens and the antioxidant capacity was determined by ABTS, DPPH, and FRAP assays. The major compounds identified in the essential oil of araçá (EOA) were β-caryophyllene and β-elemene, representing 38.69% and 7.47%, respectively, whereas β-selinene (13.83%), α-humulene (10.90%), and βcaryophyllene (7.61%) were the major compounds identified in the essential oil of guava (EOG). Both EOs showed activity against Salmonella Enteritidis, with MIC being 1.41 µg/ml for the EOA and 1.37 µg/ml for the EOG. The EOA was more effective than the EOG against strains of Listeria monocytogenes and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with the MIC being 1.41 µg/ml. The EOA showed 10.43, 12.35, and 3.92 µmol TE/ml at 90 µg/ml whereas the EOG showed 4.54, 8.94, and 3.43 µmol TE/ml at 88 µg/ml for ABTS, DPPH, and FRAP, respectively. Thus, the EOs demonstrated an effective action against foodborne pathogens and free radicals, indicative of their potential use as natural preservatives for foods.Practical Application: Guava and araçá are native Brazilian plants producers of essential oils, natural compounds with antimicrobial and antioxidant potential. The chemical composition of essential oils is responsible for its beneficial properties. The results demonstrated that the essential oils studied are rich in β-caryophyllene and has excellent activity against malefic microorganisms and free radicals, and can also be used as natural preservatives in foods.

“…The family Myrtaceae stands out (Chrystal et al, 2020;Gatto et al, 2020), found mainly in the southern region of Brazil, which demonstrates the importance of developing research with native fruits (Neri-Numa et al, 2018;Rodrigues et al, 2020), many still little explored (Moreira-Araújo et al, 2019) and with great potential for economic exploration (Lattuada et al, 2019;Neri-Numa et al, 2018). In this family, the Myrcianthes pungens (O. Berg) D. Legrand, popularly known as guabiju, it is a medium to large tree with around 20 m, present simple leaves and considered ornamental plant, its fruits are appreciated due to the pleasant sweet flavor (Assumpção et al, 2017).…”

The objective of this work was to evaluate the influence of temperature on the content of bioactive compounds of fruits of guabiju (Myrcianthes pungens (O. Berg) D. Legrand). The peel, pulp and seed of fresh guabiju were analyzed in relation to physical-chemical composition, metals, color, phenolic compounds, flavonoids, anthocyanins, vitamin C and antioxidant activity. On the dehydrated samples at temperature of 60 °C, where also determined the moisture and water activity. The fractions of the fruit showed high amounts of metals. After drying, moisture of 1.3, 1.0 and 0.9% were observed for peel, pulp and seed and water activity of 0.44 to 0.54. All the samples darkened, with less variation in the dehydrated peel (∆E 9.2). The samples showed high values of bioactive compounds, and in the fresh peel were observed higher levels of phenolic compounds (8459.8 mg EGA/100g dry extract), anthocyanins (152.0 mg/100 dry extract) and vitamin C (222.9 mg/100g) and on the dehydrated seed higher value of flavonoids (7480.7 mg EQ/100g dry extract). There was 86.3% degradation of anthocyanins in the dehydrated peel. The best values of antioxidant activities were obtained for the dehydrated peel (IC50 1.37 mg/mL), seed (IC50 1.49 mg/mL) and in the fresh peel (IC50 1.41 mg/mL).
