“…To date, most studies are centered on the functional analysis of whole LEO, highlighting its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties specifically related to the presence of linalool [ 11 ] and limonene [ 20 ]. Less consideration has been given to the biological properties of the fractions obtained from whole oil; in fact, the few available information is mainly focused on the isolation techniques and the molecular profiling description [ 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ], rather than on the functional role of the fractions [ 37 , 38 , 39 ].…”

Lemon essential oil (LEO) is a well-known flavoring agent with versatile biological activities. In the present study, we have isolated and characterized four citral-enriched fractions of winter LEO. We reported that in murine and human macrophages the pre-treatment with a mix of these fractions (Cfr-LEO) reduces the expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 induced by LPS. In addition, Cfr-LEO counteracts LPS-induced oxidative stress, as shown by the increase in the GSH/GSSG ratio in comparison to cells treated with LPS alone. Overall, the results reported here encourage the application of EO fractions, enriched in citral, in the nutraceutical industry, not only for its organoleptic properties but also for its protective action against inflammation and oxidative stress.

“…For this purpose, other extraction methods and more selective solvents can be used to improve the d-limonene yield in Ponkan essential oil as suggested by Batista [34]. If the separation of d-limonene from the other terpenoids present in the Ponkan essential oil is necessary, it can be done by deterpenation [40][41][42].…”

Article InformationThe tangerine juice corresponds to 47 wt.% of the fruits and it is normally extracted by pressing generating agro-industrial waste rich in compounds with market value. Thus, the objective of this study was to obtain the essential oil from Citrus reticulata Blanco peels and compare it with those obtained from the waste of the ponkan tangerine juice industry, rich in d-limonene. The waste and peels were cut into pieces of approximately 1 cm², dried in an oven with air circulation at 50 °C for 15 h, ground, and classified by sieving with particle size between 20 to 28 mesh. The moisture content in dried waste and peels were 8.5 wt.% and 6.0 wt.%, respectively. A particle size was defined for the extractions. The essential oil extractions were performed by hydrodistillation, in Clevenger method, with 50 g of sample, 500 mL of distilled water for 2 h. The essential oil yield was 0.22 wt.% (88.5 % of d-limonene) for ponkan waste and 1.65 wt.% of for ponkan peel (89.7 % of dlimonene). The results showed that separation of the Ponkan peel before processing the fruit enables more efficient extraction of the compounds of interest.
