“…The main compounds in the essential oil of aerial parts and seeds of A. sylvestris collected from Serbia were limonene (66.6 and 75.3%) and α -pinene (19.0 and 9.6%) [ 12 , 14 ]. In the present study, we did not found limonene, but the concentration of α-pinene (12.4%) was similar to that in the mentioned papers.…”

“…The roots of A. sylvestris contain 0.16% of essential oil, flowers 0.52%, leaves 0.08%, and seeds of A. sylvestris contain 1.1% of essential oil with the main components being limonene, α -pinene, myrcene, β -fellandrene, α -hamrigren, and β -sesquifellandrene [ 12 , 13 , 14 ]. The essential oil of roots contains mostly sesquiterpenoids, while the essential oil of seeds contains monoterpenoids [ 13 , 15 ].…”

The aerial parts of Anthemis tinctoria L. and Angelica sylvestris L. and the roots of A. sylvestris have been used as traditional anticancer remedies in Estonian ethnomedicine. The aim of this study was to investigate content of essential oils (by gas chromatography) and polyphenolic compounds (using two different methods of high performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (HPLC–MS)) of both plant species, as well as the in vitro anti-cancer effects of their essential oils and methanolic extracts. The average (n = 5 samples) yield of essential oils was 0.15%, 0.13%, and 0.17%, respectively. The principal compounds of the essential oil from the aerial parts of A. tinctoria were palmitic acid (15.3%), p-cymene (12.6%), and α-muurolene (12.5%), and α-pinene (45.4%), p-cymene (15.5%), and β-myrcene (13.3%) in aerial parts of A. sylvestris, while isocaryophyllene oxide (31.9%), α-bisabolol (17.5%), and α-pinene (12.4%) were the main constituents in the roots. The most abundant phenolic compounds in aerial parts were the derivatives of caffeic acid, quinic acid, and quercetin; the main compounds in roots of A. sylvestris were chlorogenic acid, quinic acid, and naringenin. The strongest anticancer effects were observed in essential oils of A. sylvestris roots and aerial parts on human carcinoma in the mouth cells (KB, IC50 19.73 μg/mL and 19.84 μg/mL, respectively). The essential oil of A. tinctoria showed a strong effect on KB and LNCaP cells (27.75–29.96 μg/mL). The methanolic extracts of both plants had no effect on the cancer cells studied.

“…A previous study showed that the methanol extract of A. sylvestris contains polyphenols (Stanković et al 2016). A study by Aćimović et al (2018) showed that A. sylvestris root contained glycosides and essential oil with nonane A as the essential ingredient. The main constituents of the oil were α-pinene, δ-3-carene, limonene, and α-phellandrene.…”

Abstract. Saleh RH, Omran AM, Bash HS. 2023. Chemical composition and antimicrobial effect of Melissa officinalis and Angelica sylvestris on selected microbial pathogens. Biodiversitas 24: 1871-1877. Melissa officinalis L. and Angelica sylvestris L. have been used for traditional herbal medicines due to their antimicrobial action against pathogenic microbes. The purpose of this research was to determine the chemical content of the aqueous and ethanol extracts of M. officinalis and A. sylvestris and their antimicrobial activity against selected bacteria and fungi. This study was done from March 2022 to July 2022. The antimicrobial activity of the extracts was carried out against three bacterial isolates (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae) and one fungal isolate (Candida albicans). The fungal isolate was isolated from the different patients. The concentrations of extracts were 10, 20, 30, 40 mg/mL. The antimicrobial activity was performed using agar diffusion methods and compared to standard gentamycin and fluconazole disc. It has been shown that the major phytochemical composition in M. officinalis and A. sylvestris aqueous and ethanolic extracts were: alkaloids, phenols, glycosides, and flavonoids. The extracts of M. officinalis and A. sylvestris exhibit different antimicrobial activity against the tested microorganisms, and their activity increased with increasing extract concentration. Melissa officinalis extracts inhibited the growth of all tested microorganisms except C. albicans. Aqueous and ethanol extracts of M. officinalis were more effective against E. coli. A. sylvestris aqueous extract was the most effective against S. aureus. The most potent antimicrobial activity of the ethanolic extract was detected against K. pneumoniae. The antimicrobial properties of M. officinalis and A. sylvestris are related to their chemical compounds, such as phenols, alkaloids, glycosides, and flavonoids. Both plants extract showed good inhibition against most microorganisms. Based on the research results, M. officinalis and A. sylvestris are potential new sources of antimicrobial agents.
