Chemical composition of essential oil from ripe fruit of Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi and evaluation of its activity against wild strains of hospital origin

Abstract: The essential oil (EO) composition of ripe fruit of S. terebinthifolius Raddi was analyzed by GC-MS. The oil extraction yielded 6.54 ± 1.06% (w/w). Seventeen compounds were identified, accounting for 91.15% of the total oil, where monoterpenes constituted the main chemical class (85.81%), followed by sesquiterpenes (5.34%). The major monoterpene identified was δ-3-carene (30.37%), followed by limonene (17.44%), α-phellandrene (12.60%) and α-pinene (12.59%). Trans-caryophyllene (1.77%) was the major sesquiterpe… Show more

“…(Table 4) enabled detection of 25 compounds in the essential oil from S. terebinthifolius fruits. As shown in Table 4, 16 [32] and Cole et al [12]. This variation observed in the same species collected at different locations (ecotypes) can often be explained by the high complexity of the chemical composition of essential oils, which depends on several factors, such as the location of harvest, climatic conditions, genetic variability (chemotype), pretreatment of the raw material (e.g., grinding, drying), and extraction process [3,19,33].…”

“…The high resistance of E. coli toward treatments could be due to the presence of LPS in the outer membrane of the E. coli, which make it inherently resistant to external agents, such as hydrophilic dyes, antibiotics, and detergents (Cole et al, 2014). However, the occurrence of gram-negative bacteria naturally sensitive to lysozyme (Ellison and Giehl, 1991;Pellegrini et al, 1992) suggests that LPS may not be the only protective means against lysozyme action, and that other mechanisms, not hindered by LPS, may exist (Monchois et al, 2001;Callewaert et al, 2008).…”
