“…Egyptian researchers team obtained almost identical results with the main compounds: anethole, fenchone and limonene (41.4%, 24.7%, and 11.8%) respectively in Fennel fruit essential oil [15]. Our results are different from those obtained by Ilić Dušica et al [31] in which the most abundant component in F. vulgare var. Vulgare fruit essential oils, was trans-anethole.…”

The essential oils of plants have been widely recognized in the pharmaceutical industry due to their various benefits as well as their biological activities. In Algeria, the seeds of Foeniculum vulgare Mill (Family Apiaceae) are widely utilized in herbal medicine. We aimed to examine the chemical composition of seed essential oil of this species, and to reveal its in vitro antifungal activity against Candida albicans, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus sp., Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Trichophyton violaceum, Microsporumgypseum, Microsporumcanis and Rhodotorula sp. Chemical analysis of essential oil isolated by hydro-distillation was carried out by GC-FID and GC-MS. The basic components of the essential oil were estragole (84.8%), limonene (7.8%), fenchone (3.1%) and α-pinene (1.3%). The essential oil of F. vulgare revealed higher antifungal activities particularly against C. albicans and Aspergillus species with MIC values of 0.16-0.2 mg/ml.

“…Trans-anethole ( Fig. 1-5 ) was identified as a major component with a share of 56.4–69.9% in total composition, whereas fenchone, estragole, and limonene were the other main components ( Anwar et al , 2009 ; Roby et al , 2013 ; Diao et al , 2014 ; Ilic et al , 2019 ).…”

More recently, Ilic et al (2019) reported that B. subtilis (MIC; 25 µ g/mL) was the most sensitive bacteria to FEO, followed by Staph. aureus (50 µ g/mL), E. coli (75 µ g/mL), and Klebsiella pneumoniae (75 µ g/mL).…”

Characteristics of Essential Oils of <i>Apiaceae </i>Family: Their Chemical Compositions, <i>in vitro </i>Properties and Effects on Broiler Production

There has been an upsurge of interest in the phytobiotics coincident with the onset of the potential ban on the use of antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) in the broiler industry and because many kinds of nutraceuticals play an important role in improving growth performance, feed efficiency, and gut health of broilers. In the previous years, significant biological activities of essential oils (EOs) belonging to phytobiotics were observed, including anti-bacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antioxidant properties. We found new perspectives on the roles of EOs, particularly extracts from the Apiaceae family, which is one of the largest plant families, in potential replacement of AGPs, and on the chemical composition involved in regulating microorganism activity and oxidative damage. Furthermore, the positive effects of EOs on broiler production and the possible mechanisms inducing the involvement of gut health and growth performance have been studied.

“…Oppositely, many studies found that the most principle component of fennel was trans-anethole. [22][23][24] In fact, the variation of principle components is species-specific or origin-specific. For example, Kalleli et al (2019) found that the most abundant component of fennel produced in Tunisian was trans-anethole (63.41%-78.26%), but the one of fennel produced in French was estragole (44.72%-88.92%).…”

Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) is a herbaceous plant species (Apiaceae) native to Mediterranean and southern Europe, but now extensively naturalized in many regions of the word including Japan, Russia, India, and China. 1 Fennel seeds and their essential oils have been broadly applied in the areas of food production, cosmetic and pharmaceutical engineering, attributing to their special properties, such as the obvious abilities of flavouring, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic and antimicrobials. [1][2][3][4][5][6] Thus, the development and research for fennel essential oils receives great attention.Fennel essential oils mainly contain trans-anethole, estragole, fenchone, limonene and α-pinene, which were proved to be the reason of its excellent antimicrobial activities. 6,7 However, the constitutes of fennel essential oils possess a remarkable variation, which is determined by the plant genotypes, plant development stage, location, climatic conditions, powder size and extraction technologies. [8][9][10][11] For example, the essential oil of fennel seeds from Tunisian
