“…Its MIC concentration of 950 ng/ml is almost nine times higher than that of Schinus molle. Moreover, the essential oil and ethanolic extract of Schinus molle have been previously reported to show antifungal activity (Ross et al, 1980;Dikshit et al, 1986;Gundidza, 1993;Quiroga et al, 2001), however, this is the first time it has been shown for the aqueous extract (decoction 30%).…”

RESUMO:Uma das alternativas para reduzir o uso de agrotóxicos pode ser a utilização de óleos essenciais para o controle de doenças e pragas que afetam a produção agrícola. O objetivo do presente estudo foi verificar o efeito fungicida dos óleos essenciais de Schinus molle L. e Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi, espécies nativas amplamente distribuídas na região. Os óleos foram extraídos por hidrodestilação e analisados por cromatografia gasosa. Os fungos fitopatógenos Alternaria spp., Botrytis spp., Colletotrichum spp. e Fusarium spp., foram isolados a partir de gérberas e rosas com sintomas de doença e os ensaios de atividade antifúngica foram realizados através da técnica de difusão em disco e os dados analisados pelo teste de Tukey e Duncan a 5%. Em geral o óleo essencial de S. molle foi efetivo para os quatro fungos testados, nas quatro diluições utilizadas e para todos os tempos avaliados e o óleo essencial de S. terebinthifolius apresenta efeito fungicida mais pronunciado contra Botrytis spp., a partir de testes in vitro.Unitermos: óleos essenciais, Schinus molle., Schinus terebinthifolius, efeito fungicida, α-pineno, sabineno.ABSTRACT: "Antifungal effect of Schinus molle L., Anacardiaceae, and Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi, Anacardiaceae, essential oils of Rio Grande do Sul". One of the alternatives to reduce the use of pesticides may be the use of essential oils to control diseases and pests that affect agricultural production. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fungicide effect of essential oils of Schinus molle L. and Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi, native species widely distributed in the region. The oils were extracted by hydro distillation and analyzed by gas chromatography. The phytopathogenic fungi Alternaria spp., Botrytis spp., Colletotrichum spp. and Fusarium spp., were isolated from "gerberas" and roses with symptoms of disease and antifungal activity of the tests were carried out by the technique of spreading disk. The data was analyzed by Tukey and Duncan tests to 5%. In general, the essential oil of S. molle was effective for the four fungi tested, for the four dilutions used and for all the times evaluated. The essential oil of S. terebinthifolius presents more pronounced fungicide effect against Botrytis spp., from in vitro tests.

“…The essential oil of Hoslundia opposita exhibited antimicrobial activity (Gundidza et al, 1992). An ethanolic extract of leaves of Leonotis nepetifolia exhibited moderate activity against poliomyelitis virus and coxsackie B2 virus, while the fruit ethanolic extract exhibited strong and moderate activity against viruses Poliomyelitis and Semliki Forest L10 .…”

Antimicrobial Activity of the Essential Oil fromEucalyptus maidenii

Abstract: Using the standard assay on irritant activity testing (4), the phorbol ester exhibited a highly irritant activity on the mouse ear (ID = 0.05 pg/ear). Since skin irritancy is an indication of possible tumor promotion, the use of this plant as a medicine should be discouraged.
