“…The same majority compounds were reported in the essential oil obtained from same plant species of Benin, with percentage of piperitone (58.9%), the 2-carene (15.5%) and elemol (5.3%) (Bossou et al, 2015). The Tunisians C. schoenantus essential oil showed variations in chemical composition of volatiles.…”

“…The good insecticidal properties of piperitone have been already reported. Indeed, piperitone, isolated from the essential oil of Artemisia judaica, has demonstrated a complete antifeedant activity at a concentration of 1000 µg/mL against the third instar larvae of Spodoptera littoralis using non-choice leaf discassay (Abdelgaleil et al, 2008;Bossou et al, 2015).…”

“…Furthermore when tested against Callosobruchus maculatus, piperitone, isolated from C. schoenanthus, was more toxic by fumigation to adults with a IC 50 value of1.6 µL/L vs. 2.7 µL/L obtained with the crude extract (Ketoh et al, 2006;Bossou et al, 2015). Piperitone was also reported as a powerful repellent and antiappetent agent against ant of Crematogaster spp.…”

Hydrodistilled volatile oil obtained from the aerial parts of Cymbopogon schoenanthus cultivated near Illizi, Algeria, was analyzed by Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and Gas Chromatography -Flame Ionization Detector (GC-FID). More than twenty compounds were identified, representing 94.636% of the total oil. The major constituents of essential oil were piperitone (63.35%), β-eudesmol (9.305%) and elemol (6.915%). Isolated essential oil was tested for radical-scavenging ability using the stable 2,2-diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical, the 2,2'-azino-bis (ABTS) radical and for reducing power ability with a test based on the reduction of ferric cations (FRAP). In all tests, oil did not show a prominent antioxidant activity. The screening of antimicrobial activity of oil was individually evaluated against representatives of gram-positive, gram-negative bacteria and fungi, using the agar diffusion method. All tested microorganisms were inhibited by the essential oil of C. schoenanthus.

“…In contrast, 6-octenal (77.1%) was found to be a major component in the EO of C. citriodora grown in Nigeria [26], and α -pinene (38.6%), β -pinene (25.6%), sabinene (19.6%), and α -thujene (11.9%) were the major compounds contained in the EO of C. citriodora leaves from Paschim Vihar (New Delhi) [29]. Neo -isopulegol, citronellal, iso -isopulegol, citronellol, citronellyl acetate, and E -caryophyllene were the primary components in the EO of the plant from Benin [50]. Hussein et al [51] found that α-citronellal, α-citronellol, citronellol acetate, and isopulegol were the major chemical constituents from C. citriodora leaf EO.…”

BackgroundCupressus macrocarpa Hartw and Corymbia citriodora (Hook.) K.D. Hill & L.A.S. Johnson, widely grown in many subtropical areas, are used for commercial purposes, such as in perfumery, cosmetics, and room fresheners. Their potential as a source of antimicrobial compounds may be useful in different applications.MethodsThe chemical composition of essential oils (EOs) from C. macrocarpa branchlets and C. citriodora leaves was analyzed by using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Antibacterial and antifungal activities were assessed by the micro-dilution method to determine the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), and minimum fungicidal concentrations (MFCs), and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs). Further, the antioxidant capacity of the EOs was determined via 2,2′-diphenypicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and β-carotene-linoleic acid assays.ResultsTerpinen-4-ol (23.7%), α-phellandrene (19.2%), α-citronellol (17.3%), and citronellal were the major constituents of EO from C. macrocarpa branchlets, and α-citronellal (56%), α-citronellol (14.7%), citronellol acetate (12.3%), isopulegol, and eucalyptol were the primary constituents of EO from C. citriodora leaves. Antibacterial activity with MIC values of EO from C. citriodora leaves was ranged from 0.06 mg/mL to 0.20 mg/mL, and MBC from 0.12 mg/mL against E. coli to 0.41 mg/mL. EO from C. macrocarpa branchlets showed less activity against bacterial strains. The MIC values against tested fungi of the EO from C. citriodora ranged from 0.11 to 0.52 mg/mL while for EO from C. macrocarpa from 0.29 to 3.21 mg/mL. The MIC and MFC values of EOs against P. funiculosum were lower than those obtained from Ketoconazole (KTZ) (0.20; 0.45; 0.29 and 0.53 mg/mL, respectively, vs 0.21 and 0.41 mg/mL. Antioxidant activity of the EO from C. citriodora was higher than that of the positive control but lower than that of the standard butylhydroxytoluene (BHT) (IC50 = 5.1 ± 0.1 μg/mL).ConclusionThe results indicate that the EO from Egyptian trees such as C. citriodora leaves may possesses strong bactericidal and fungicidal activities and can be used as an agrochemical for controlling plant pathogens and in human disease management which will add crop additive value.

“…Local intervention policies and strategies include larval control, diagnosis, treatments and surveillance financially supported by Government, Global fund and USAID/PMI. It is also reported that C. citratus showed insecticidal, antifungicidal, antiinflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant activities (Naik et al, 2010;Francisco et al, 2013;Avoseh et al, 2015;Bossou et al, 2015;Briones et al, 2015;Fadli et al, 2016). Efficacy of C. citratus is indeed linked to its biochemical composition.…”

This work aimed to study the chemical composition of essential oils and floral waters of Cymbopogon citratus (DC.) Stapf (Poaceae) from Senegal. The plants were collected in two different localities, Dakar and Kaolack. The extracts were obtained by steam distillation from both fresh and dried plants and analyses carried out by GC/FID and GC/MS. Oils from Dakar were dominated by geranial which represented 46.0-43.9%, neral 31.8-31.0%, myrcene 10.8-11.7% and geraniol 2.7-4.2% in the fresh and dried plants, respectively. Their floral waters contained mainly 44.6-41.4% geranial, 39.7-35.6% neral and 8.8-13.2% geraniol. The oils from Kaolack were characterized by geranial which constituted 49.5-44.5%, neral 33.3-31.2%, myrcene 7.2-9.6% and geraniol 4.3-6.1% in the fresh and dried plants, respectively. In their floral waters, it is identified 42.8-33.6% geranial, 38.4-27.6% neral and 12.5-24.5% geraniol. This original study revealed that both oils and floral waters of C. citratus from Senegal are characterized by geranial and neral whose repellent properties against mosquitoes are known.
