“…Hoy existe alta y creciente demanda de este tipo de metabolitos, creando un negocio multimillonario alrededor de su explotación. Esto, ha creado la necesidad de intensificar el cultivo de plantas medicinales y aromáticas buscando altos índices de producción a bajos costos [2,3]. Sin embargo, los bajos rendimientos, los altos costos de producción, la baja disponibilidad de material vegetal, entre otros, son factores que limitan la obtención de este tipo de sustancias e incentiva la búsqueda de sustitutos y otras alternativas de producción [4].…”

“…These findings showed significant difference of the dry matter content when applied increasing amounts of organic fertilizer to B. trimera var. CPQBA-1, which has already been well-described to several medicinal plants around the world [11]. Comparing the dry matter between two harvest times, the production of the regrowth can be five times larger than the first harvest (Fig.…”

“…It is among the 10 most commonly plants sold in Brazil in dried form, and it is also on the list of medicinal plants recommended by Agência Nacional with other medicinal plants, which has hindered the organization of its production [10]. Therefore, the indiscriminate collection of several wild Brazilian medicinal plants has increased, and the quality of these products has been low [11,12].…”

Abstract:This study aimed to investigate, for the first time, the plant growth, essential oil content and their chemical substances of Baccharis trimera (Less.) DC., the first Brazilian variety of medicinal plant, in response to five doses of organic fertilizer (0,10,20,30,40 and 50 ton/ha) over two harvest moments-120 d and 242 d after transplanting (DAT). The work was carried out from February to October 2011 at the experimental farm of the Sao Paulo State University "Julio de Mesquita Filho" (UNESP), Brazil. The seedlings of B. trimera var. CPQBA-1 were respectively transplanted into experiment plots under six treatments: 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 ton/ha of organic fertilizer. Each treatment had four replications and each plot consisted of 12 plants. Then they were harvested at 120 DAT and 242 DAT, and the essential oil were extracted by hydrodistillation and analyzed by gas chromatograph. The results were subjected to analysis of variance and the means were analysed using Tukey's test (5%) followed by a regression analysis. The fertilizer dose significantly influenced the height of the plants in the second harvest, while the higher dose of organic fertilizer positively impacted the essential oil content in the first harvest. Also, the level of organic fertilizer was directly correlated with the production of dry matter during the regrowth. Twenty-seven substances were identified in the essential oil samples, and the major components were: bicyclogermacrene, trans-caryophyllene, germacrene-D, spathulenol and caryophyllene oxide. These findings suggest that to obtain higher yields of dry matter of B. trimera, it should be harvested around 242 DAT and organic fertilizer should be applied approximately to 50 ton/ha. Furthermore, higher doses of organic fertilizer and harvest at 120 DAT is able to increase the essential oil content.

RESUMO -O fenômeno de resistência apresentada por leveduras aos antimicóticos bem como a necessidade de insumos de higiene para uso em sistemas de criação animal baseados no modelo agroecológico motivaram o desenvolvimento deste trabalho. Os objetivos foram realizar a análise fitoquímica qualitativa e avaliar a ação antimicrobiana/desinfetante do extrato hidroalcoólico bruto [peso:volume de 5g:100 mL (50 mg mL)] das flores de Achyrocline satureioides sobre uma Candida albicans padrão (ATCC 14053) e isoladas de casos de mastite bovina: C. albicans (n = 1) , C. krusei (n = 21) e C. rugosa (n = 9). O teste foi o de suspensão, com as linhagens em três densidades populacionais (DP): 10 5 , 10 4 e 10 3 UFC mL, nos tempos de contato (TC) de 15 e 30 minutos e de 1 até 10 horas. Com resultados da atividade influenciados pelas variáveis DP e TC, todas as leveduras foram inativadas. Como exemplo na mais alta DP: a padrão estava inativada na leitura de 1 h; dos isolados clínicos, o de C. albicans inativado na leitura das 3 h; sete isolados de C. krusei estavam inativados aos 30 min e os outros 14 na leitura de 1 h; sete isolados de C. rugosa estavam inativados na leitura das 4 h, os outros até às 10 h. Os fitoquímicos identificados foram compostos fenólicos, taninos, taninos condensados e flavonóides. As evidências observadas sugerem o potencial do extrato para uso sobre as fontes de infecção em procedimentos de desinfecção ou de antissepsia, ou em formulações que lhe sirvam de veículo.Palavras-Chave: extrato vegetal; Achyrocline satureioides; Candida spp.; produto natural.ABSTRACT -This work was prompted by the phenomenon of yeasts' resistance to antifungals, and the need for sanitation products for use in livestock farming in the agroecological model. The objectives were to undertake a qualitative phytochemical analysis of, and assess the antimicrobial/disinfectant action of, the crude hydroalcoholic extract [weight:volume of 5g:100 mL (50 mg mL)] of flowers of Achyrocline satureioides on standard Candida albicans (ATCC 14053) and isolates of cases of bovine mastitis: C. albicans (n = 1) , C. krusei (n = 21) and C. rugosa (n = 9). The test was that of suspension, the lineages in three population densities (PD): 10 5 , 10 4 and 10 3 CFU mL, at contact times (CT) of 15 and 30 minutes and from 1 up to 10 hours. Activity results were influenced by the PD and CT variables, with all yeasts inactivated. For example, at the highest PD: the standard strain was inactivated in the reading at 1 hr; of the clinical isolates, C. albicans was inactivated in the reading at 3 hrs; seven isolates of C. krusei at 30 minutes and the other 14 at 1 hr; seven isolates of C. rugosa were inactivated in the reading at 4 hrs, with the others inactivated at 10 hrs. Phytochemicals identified were phenolic compounds, tannins, condensed tannins and flavonoids. The evidence observed suggests the extract's potential for use on sources of infection in disinfection/antisepsis procedures, or in formulations which serve as a vehicle.
