“…The monoterpenes are the main group of constituents of EO, and the eucalyptol is a principal constituent, also known as cineole and 1,8-cineole, which must comprise at least 90% of the total contents. 2 5 Most of the EO production worldwide comes from Eucalyptus globulus . 6 The raw material storage condition, method of extraction, and purification can influence the composition of extracted oil.…”

Objective Eucalyptus oil (EO)-induced seizures (EOIS) in children is a less recognized entity and a rare cause of acute symptomatic seizures. The purpose of this review outlines the clinical features and outcomes of EOIS with observed cases. Patients and Methods We identified three pediatric patients with EOIS who were treated at Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences, Karim Nagar, India. Results Seizures were developed in three children within 15 to 25 minutes after the ingestion of EO. All the children have taken EO first time and all have the first episode of seizures. One child had status epilepticus. Neuroimaging and electroencephalogram were normal. Two children were treated with antiepileptic drugs for 2 weeks. All the children were recovered within 2 days and none of them had a recurrence of seizures. Conclusion EOIS is an underrecognized and rare entity. The knowledge or awareness of EOIS among health care professionals can prevent unnecessary investigations and long-term antiepileptic drug therapy.

Our study explores the impact of sudden gap formation on the bark volatile and internal chemical profiles of Norway spruce trees during the initial dry year of research plot 2018 following gap formation. We investigated the annual variation in two main physiological traits of Norway spruce trees at the forest edge (FE) and in the forest interior (FI): bark monoterpene (MT) emission spectra and internal phloem MT composition. Given that gap formation increases the solar radiation dose and temperature for trees at the forest edge, we hypothesized that the concentrations of airborne terpenes released from the tree bark and internal phloem terpenes will increase as a consequence of induced tree defenses. Our findings demonstrate significant increases in both airborne terpene concentrations and internal terpene composition in trees at the forest edge compared to the control trees in the forest interior. This study provides novel insights into the annual dynamics of bark monoterpenes following forest edge establishment and underscores the physiological changes experienced by trees in response to the gap formation.
