“…The methods used for extraction of the essential oil from chicory include the hydrodistillation and steam distillation method. Hydrodistillation has been the most used, reported in the works by Jaramillo et al [ 60 ], Ngang et al [ 61 ], Sumitha et al [ 14 ], Chandrika et al [ 58 ], Thomas et al [ 1 ], Rodrigues et al [ 5 ], and Castro-Alayo et al [ 62 ], and steam distillation is used for extraction. With these methods, levels from 2.8% [ 58 ] to 7.65% [ 1 ] of (2E)-2-dodecenal were found in the roots and between 14.3% [ 58 ] and 50.62% [ 61 ] in the leaves.…”

Eryngiumfoetidum L. is popularly known as chicória-do-Pará, is native to the Amazon region, and is widely distributed in Northern Brazil. It is considered a versatile species due to its diversified uses in ethnomedicine, gastronomy, and pharmaceutical industry. The objective of this study was to review the literature on the traditional uses, chemical composition, and pharmacological activities of E. foetidum based on information published in national and international scientific articles between the years 2011 and 2021. Literature searches were performed with the combination of the expressions “Eryngium foetidum L.,” “chicória-do-Pará,” “traditional uses,” “ethnobotany,” “volatile compounds,” and “essential oil.” The species is widely used as a flavoring condiment in beans, meat, duck, and fish, and in the preparation of tucupi (cassava sap), showing to have great importance for the Amazonian food culture. In traditional medicine, it has analgesic, antibacterial, antiflu, and antipyretic applications. The chemical profile is characterized by the presence of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes, mainly (2E)-2-dodecenal in leaves and 2,3,4-trimethylbenzaldehyde in roots, in addition to fixed compounds such as carotenoids, flavonoids, and phenols. These compounds have shown diverse biological activities and potential antibacterial, anthelmintic, and antioxidant applications, confirming their potential for use in folk medicine. Therefore, it is inferred that this aromatic plant has vast potential uses and is an important alternative as a natural resource for the food and pharmaceutical industries in view of its antioxidant capacity and bioactive compounds.

“…Further, this study suggested that terpenes present in these plants could be the reason for this mosquito larvicidal activity 68 . Sumitha et al 69 reported that the essential oil from aerial parts of this plant could be effectively used against fourth-instar Aedes albopictus larvae, in which 90% of larvicidal activity was exhibited.…”

Eryngium foetidum L. (Family Apiaceae) is a biennial herb, and it is used as a culinary herb and spice across the different countries of the world, including Sri Lanka, India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Singapore, etc. due to its high aroma quality. Also, it is used to treat several ailments, such as respiratory diseases, gastrointestinal ailments, and skin diseases among different indigenous populations for its medicinal properties. Based on ethnomedical evidence, many studies have been conducted to identify the phytoconstituents, underlying mechanisms, and related pharmacological effects of different parts of this plant. This study reviewed the current state of findings related to the Pharmacological activities of E. foetidum. Based on this review, this plant is widely used for ethnomedical and culinary purposes. Pharmacological screening of the plant revealed that it had different activities such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, anthelminthic, anticonvulsant, anticancer, antidiabetic, antimalarial, larvicidal, and hepatoprotective activities. This review further promised that potential new chemical entities could be elicited from the phytoconstituents of E. foetidum.

“…In the study of Medbouhi et al [4] the chemical compositions of E. triquetrum essential oils from 25 different locations were investigated and falcarinol (63.5-90.6%) was found to be highly dominant in the essential oils, followed by octanal (1.0-12.8%). 2-Dodecen-1-al (46.68%) and caprinic alcohol (14.80%) in E. foetidum essential oil and α-bisabolol (32.6%), αcurcumene (6.5%) and α-selinene (5.4%) in E. tricuspidatum essential oil were reported as major compounds [17,18]. A comparison of the major compounds of the essential oil from different species of Eryngium is depicted in Table 2.…”

The chemical characterization and antioxidant activities of essential oils of Eryngium pseudothoriifolium Contandr. & Quézel and E. thorifolium Boiss., endemic plant species from Turkey, were investigated. The essential oils obtained by hydro-distillation were analyzed by GC/FID and GC/MS. Thirty and twenty-three compounds representing 99.5% and 99.7% were identified in E. pseudothoriifolium and E. thorifolium essential oils, respectively. The main component of E. pseudothoriifolium oil was falcarinol (84.8%) whereas those of E. thorifolium were α-pinene (31.9%), caryophyllene oxide (21.6%) and hexahydrofarnesylacetone (11.1%). The antioxidant capacities of the essential oils were tested by several methods including β-carotene-linoleic acid, radical scavenging (DPPH and ABTS) and reducing power (CUPRAC) assays. The essential oil of E. pseudothoriifolium with the high amount of falcarinol exhibited the best antioxidant activity in all assays. The results of the present study supported the possible uses of Eryngium essential oils as a valuable source of natural antioxidant in food and pharmaceutical industries.
