“…Phenolic compounds were investigated in Mentha piperita by Areias et al 48 According to this study, M. piperita contains a high percentage of phenolic compounds such as eriodictyol, luteolin, hesperetin, apigenin, and rosmarinic acid, etc. 48 These compounds might be responsible for the inhibition of hCA I and II observed in the current study, but this hypothesis must be verified.…”

“…For the extraction of phenol secondary metabolites we used methanol. The suitability of methanol as a solvent was recommended for these purposes in the available literature (Dorman et al, 2009), (Areias et al, 2001). The percentage content of THD in leaves' extracts varied from 0.79% to 2.48% and of flavonoids from 0.14 % to 1.08%.…”

Mentha L., the genus belonging to family Lamiaceae, subfamily Nepetoidae, has high commercial importance in the pharmacy as well as in food industry. Mints are available in all five continents and are important sources of each traditional medicine in the prevention and therapy of plenty of diseases. The most active compounds are essential oil and polyphenols. In the past the secondary metabolites in aerial parts were examined, but there is no evidence about the determination of secondary metabolites in underground parts of mints. Therefore the object of this work was to determine the content of phenolic compounds (total hydroxycinnamic derivatives (THD) and flavonoids) of methanol extracts of rhizomes of different Mentha L. and their comparison with leaves extracts. The contents of secondary metabolites were determined using spectrophotometric methods of Slovak Pharmacopoeia. We have detected similar quantities of THD in leaves (0.79 -2.48 %) and rhizomes (0.96 -2.18 %), but underground parts were poor in content of flavonoids (< 0.1 %). The free radical scavenging activity using DPPH free radical was investigated as well. A bit stronger antioxidant activity was shown in leaves extracts considering flavonoids content.

“…Mentha leaves, flowers and stems are used in traditional medicine as spasmolytics, antibacterial agents, promoters of gastric secretions, and relief for heavy colds. Mint has been also used in treatments of minor aches and sprains, as well as in nasal decongestants [3][4][5][6][7][8].…”

GC-MS fingerprints of mint essential oils

Essential oils from eleven Mentha species were obtained by Deryng hydrodistillation and analysed by GC-MS: 44 compounds were identified. The most abundant were menthone, isomenthone, menthol, carvone, piperitone oxide, D-limonene and eucalyptol. Chemometric similarity measures and principal component analysis were calculated, allowing comparisons based on secondary metabolite content. The fingerprints may be helpful in chemotaxonomy.
