“…The volatile constituents found in this study corroborate the constituents that are commonly found in several plants of the Myrtaceae family and belonging to the Syzygium genus, such as Syzygium aromaticum (Raina et al, 2001), Guinea-Bissau (Noudogbessi et al, 2008), Syzygium densiflorum (Saranya et al, 2012), Syzygium calophyllifolium (Vignesh et al, 2013) and Syzygium benthamianum (Deepika et al, 2013).…”

The species Syzygium cumini, Syzygium malaccense and Syzygium jambos, belong to the family Myrtaceae and are popularly known, respectively, by jambolan, red jambo and yellow jambo. These species are used in traditional medicine to treat diabetes mellitus, asthma, bronchitis, diuresis, gastrointestinal and respiratory infections, properties antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, antirheumatic and several other uses. The objective of this work is to identify and quantify the volatile compounds in the leaves of S. cumini, S. malaccense and S. jambos. The volatile oils were obtained by hydrodistillation using Clevenger apparatus and analyzed by Gas Chromatography Coupled to Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). It was possible to identify 44 compounds present in the volatile oils of the leaves, being 20 compounds of S. cumini, 9 compounds of S. malaccense and 15 compounds of S. jambos. The major compounds present in the species S. cumini were α-terpineol, β-caryophyllene and α-humulene; for the species S. malaccense were aristolochene, γ-himachalene and δ-amorphene; and for S. jambos species were β-cariophyllene, (E,E)-α-farnesene and cariophyllene alcohol. The species S. cumini, S. malaccense and S. jambos showed considerable differences in terms of volatile compounds, it is important to know their constituents in order to promote further studies focused on their medicinal potential.

This comprises medicinal plants not only important for the treatment of diseases but also as potential material for maintaining good health and conditions. Better cultural acceptability, better compatibility and adaptability with the human body, and lesser side effects of plants made many countries in the world to depend on herbal medicine for their primary health care (Bari et al., 2021;CHOWDHURY et al., 2021;Hoque et al., 2021). For centuries, plants are being widely used for their natural resources isolated from various parts of a plant and have been used in the treatment of human diseases. Moreover, some of these plants produce edible fruits, while others simply produce dazzling flowers, which are so attractive and important economically as well.The knowledge of traditional medicine supports all other systems of medicine such as Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani, and even modern

“…Syzygium densiflorum is a large canopy tree growing in high elevation evergreen forests between the altitudes 1500-2300 m. [2] Syzygium species are reported to exhibit anti-diabetic, [3] anti-fungal, [4,5] anti-inflammatory, [6] anti-bacterial, [5,7,8] anti-oxidant, [9] anti-hyperlipidemic [10] and growth inhibitory activity. [11] In recent years, research on natural anti-oxidants from plants is increased owing to their free radical scavenging potential.…”

Background: Syzygium densiflorum is a vulnerable tree species belonging to the Myrtaceae family. Objective: To investigate the influence of altitudinal variation on the anti-oxidant potential of leaf essential oil of Syzygium densiflorum. Materials and Methods: The leaf essential oil has been isolated using hydrodistillation process and their scavenging ability was determined using five in vitro assays such as 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ferric reducing anti-oxidant power (FRAP), 2, 2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS), hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and hydroxyl radical scavenging assays. Statistical analysis: The results were analysed statistically using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) following Duncan's multiple range test. Results: Leaves from lower altitude showed higher activity against hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radical and ferric ion and moderate activity against DPPH and ABTS free radicals. Leaves from higher altitude essential oil exhibits potent activity against hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical compared with the standard. Conclusions: Comparatively lower altitude leaf essential oil showed potent anti-oxidant activity confirming the fact that altitudinal variations have profound effect on the anti-oxidant potential of Syzygium densiflorum.
