“…may vary according to geographical region and environmental factors, being conditioned mainly to its different chemotypes [ 14 , 15 , 16 ]. P. xylosteoides leaves presented a yield of 1.8% with the main compound being myrcene (31%), which is largely used in the food and cosmetic industry [ 17 ]. P. divaricatum had yielded around 46.0%, eugenol, a compound that has been used as an anesthetic for the sedation of fish, in addition to being widely used as a local anesthetic during endodontic and restorative treatments by dentists [ 18 , 19 ].…”

The Piper genus is the most representative of the Piperaceae reaching around 2000 species distributed in the pantropical region. In the Neotropics, its species are represented by herbs, shrubs, and lianas, which are used in traditional medicine to prepare teas and infusions. Its essential oils (EOs) present high yield and are chemically constituted by complex mixtures or the predominance of main volatile constituents. The chemical composition of Piper EOs displays interspecific or intraspecific variations, according to the site of collection or seasonality. The main volatile compounds identified in Piper EOs are monoterpenes hydrocarbons, oxygenated monoterpenoids, sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, oxygenated sesquiterpenoids and large amounts of phenylpropanoids. In this review, we are reporting the biological potential of Piper EOs from the Neotropical region. There are many reports of Piper EOs as antimicrobial agents (fungi and bacteria), antiprotozoal (Leishmania spp., Plasmodium spp., and Trypanosoma spp.), acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activity against different tumor cells lines (breast, leukemia, melanoma, gastric, among others). These studies can contribute to the rational and economic exploration of Piper species, once they have been identified as potent natural and alternative sources to treat human diseases.

“…Among the sesquiterpenes, the main compounds were zingiberene (11.18%), δ-elemene (6.82%), and β-caryophyllene (4.69%). Previous work with this plant also reported the occurrence of monoterpene hydrocarbons as the main compounds; however, the compounds were found in different concentrations: α-pinene (30.5%; main component), camphene (8.9%), and limonene (6.8%; Potzernheim et al 2006b). Other research work reported the differences among the oils obtained from this plant collected in three sequential years.…”

Acaricidal activity and chemical composition of the essential oil from three Piper species

et al. 2010

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The chemical composition of the essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation of the aerial parts of Piper amalago, Piper mikanianum, and Piper xylosteoides was elucidated by gas chromatography (GC) and GC/mass spectrometry analyses. P. mikanianum and P. xylosteoides essential oils presented phenylpropanoids as their main compounds (67.89% and 48.53%, respectively) whereas P. amalago was rich in monoterpene and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (84.95%). The essential oils obtained were investigated for their effect on newly hatched larvae of the cattle tick, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus. The essential oil of P. mikanianum (LC(50) 2.33 microL/mL) was more active than that of P. xylosteoides (LC(50) 6.15 microL/mL) against the larvae, while the oil of P. amalago was inactive. These results suggest that phenylpropanoids, mainly apiol and safrole, are responsible for the acaricidal activity.

“…These properties can vary according to the geographical location, environmental and genetic factors. In this sense, the study the factors that influence EOs is important in order to obtain products with the desired properties, since compounds with high value have better evaluation on the international market [10,11] …”

The essential oils (EOs) chemical composition can be affected by several environmental factors, impacting their desired biological activities. In this sense, this work aimed to evaluate the seasonal variation of the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of Piper caldense and Piper xylosteoides leaves EOs. Their chemical composition was determined by GC/MS and GC‐FID analyses, resulting in the identification of eighty compounds. P. caldense EOs were mainly consisted of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, whereas in P. xylosteoides EOs, monoterpene hydrocarbons were predominant. EOs from both species strongly inhibited B. subtilis (MIC=0.25 mg mL−1), while only P. caldense EOs showed strong activity against S. aureus (MIC=0.50 mg mL−1). P. caldense spring EO showed the broadest spectrum of antimicrobial action amongst all samples. For each species, PCA seasonally differentiated EOs chemical composition. In addition, as expected, PCA of all samples showed a distinction between the two species. This study has successfully demonstrated the importance of evaluating the seasonal variation of EOs chemical composition and antimicrobial activity in obtaining a product with the desired properties.
