“…umbels (5.9% vs. 31.0%). Similar results were obtained for the oil of Daucus carota from Corsica in which the phenylpropanoid contents, particularly the one of (E)-methylisoeugenol, increased significantly when the umbels ripen (Gonny et al, 2004). From these results, we concluded that phenylpropanoids should be produced in the formed seeds.…”

“…Like other aromatic plants, Daucus carota shows large variations in the chemical compositions of their essential oils during ontogenesis. For example, Gonny et al (2004), found that the chemical composition of the Corsican carrot oil varies according to its stage of development (leaves/flowering umbel/ripe umbel), particularly the amounts of (E)-methylisoeugenol that increase significantly when the umbels ripen (0.1-41.6%). (Castroviejo, 2003).…”

a b s t r a c tEthnopharmacological relevance: Essential oils are known to possess antimicrobial activity against a wide spectrum of bacteria and fungi. Daucus carota L. is used since olden times in traditional medicine, due to recognized therapeutic properties, namely the antimicrobial activity of their essential oils.Aim of the study: In the present study the composition and the antifungal activity of the oils of Daucus carota L. subsp. halophilus (Brot.) A. Pujadas (Apiaceae), an endemic plant from Portugal, were evaluated. Moreover, their cytotoxicity in mouse skin dendritic cells at concentration showing significant antifungal activity was also evaluated.Material and methods: The oils were investigated by GC and GC-MS and the antifungal activity (MIC and MLC) were evaluated against yeasts, dermatophyte and Aspergillus strains. Assessment of cell viability was made by the MTT assay.Results: The results showed large variations in the compositions during ontogenesis, particularly in the amounts of elemicin that increased significantly in the ripe umbels (5.9% vs. 31.0%). The results also demonstrated that the oil with high amounts of elemicin, which have stronger antifungal activity, showed no cytotoxic effect, at concentrations ranging from 0.16 to 0.64 l/ml, for as long as 24h.Conclusion: It is possible to find appropriate doses of Daucus carota oil showing both antifungal activity and very low detrimental effect on mammalian cells.

“…However, the dominant component of both oils was carotol. Gonny et al, (2004) found that the Corsican oil of Daucus carota L. contained E-methylisoeugenol (33.0%), α-pinene (24.9%) and elemicin (11.4%) as its major components. As was reported previously (Mazzoni et al, 1999), trans-dauca-8,11-diene,duaca-5,8-diene, acora-4,9-diene, acora-4,10-diene, (E)-β-10,11-dihydro-10,11-epoxyfarnesene and (E) ,1995).…”

“…A steady increase in carrot juice consumption has also been reported from other countries. It is regarded as a healthy food item because of its high vitamin and fiber content (Nilsson, 1987;Chen and Tang, 1998;Negi and Roy, 2000;Schieber et al, 2001;Gonny et al, 2004).…”

“…Various attempts were made at utilizing carrot pomace in food such as bread (Ohsawa et al, 1994), cake, dressing and pickles (Ohsawa et al, 1995), and for the production of functional drinks (Henn and Kunz, 1996;Schieber et al, 2001). Several studies on the chemical characterization of carrot seed and seed oil have been caried out (Mazzani et al,1999;Gonny et al, 2004;Zlatanow, 1994;Seljasen et al, 2004;Lie Ken Jie et al, 1996;Ochocka and Lamparczyk, 1993;Parker et al, 2003).…”

RESUMENComposición química de semillas de zanahoria (Daucus carota L.) cultivadas en Turquía: caracterización del aceite de semilla y del aceite esencial.Se determinó la composición química y las propiedades físicas de las semillas de zanahoria (Daucus carota L.) obtenidas en Konya, Turquía, con objeto de investigar usos potenciales de las mismas. Se determinó la humedad, el peso, el contenido proteico, en aceite, en fibra, en ceniza, en ceniza insoluble en ácido clorhídrico, los carbohidratos totales, y el rendimiento de la obtención de aceite esencial a partir de 1000 semillas maduras. Asimismo se determinó la densidad relativa, el índice de refracción, el contenido en ácidos grasos libres, el índice de peróxidos, el índice de yodo, el índi-ce de saponificación y el insaponificable del aceite de la semilla. Los principales ácidos grasos determinados por cromatografía gaseosa fueron petroselénico (59.35%), linoleico (11.82%), palmítico (10.01%), y esteárico (2.41%). El contenido mineral (Al, Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Li, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, P, Se, Sr, V and Zn) de la semillas fue determinado por espectroscopia de emisión de atómica (ICP-AES). Las semillas resultaron ser ricas en proteína, fibra y ceniza. Las composiciones del aceite esencial y del aceite comestible fueron determinadas por GC y GC-MS. Los rendimientos de aceite esencial y comestible fueron 0.83 y 7.84%, respectivamente. Los constituyentes mayoritarios del aceites esencial fueron carotol (66.78%), dauceno (8.74%), (Z,Z)-α-farneseno (5.86%), germacreno D (2.34%), trans-α-bergamoteno (2.41%), y β-selineno (2.20%). Por su parte, carotol (30.55%), ducol (12.60%) y capaenol (0.62%) fueron los componentes principales del aceite comestible. Chemical composition and physical properties were established in carrot (Daucus carota L.) seeds from Konya, Turkey to investigate their potential uses. Mature seeds were evaluated for moisture, crude protein, crude oil, crude fiber, ash, HCl-insoluble ash, total carbohydrate, essential oil yield and weight of 1000 seeds. Also, relative density, refractive index, free fatty acids, peroxide value, iodine value, saponification number and unsaponifiable matter were determined in the seed oil. The main fatty acids identified by PALABRAS-CLAVE: Aceite esencial -

The essential oils from flowers and roots of Daucus carota L. ssp. maritimus were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by combination of GC, GC/MS, and (13)C-NMR. The chemical composition of the flower and root oils of this subspecies is reported here for the first time. Thirty-two and six compounds were identified in flower and root oils, respectively. A remarkable difference was found between the constituent percentages of the two organs. The chemical composition of the essential oil from flowers was characterized by a high proportion of monoterpene hydrocarbons (68.4%) and belonged to the sabinene (4; 51.6%) chemotype. The oxygenated monoterpenes represented the second major fraction of the same oil among which terpinen-4-ol (11.0%) was the predominant compound. Root oil exhibited a surprisingly different composition. Phenolic derivatives (76.3%), myristicin (31; 29.7%), and dillapiole (32; 46.6%) constituted the main fraction. The antibacterial effect resulted in the inhibition of a series of common human pathogenic bacteria, and of some clinically and environmentally isolated strains with significant MIC and MBC values.
