“…samples in the lowest DBH class (30 cm -42 cm) were not productive. Other studies have also pointed out that trees with DBH less than 40 cm are not productive or produce low quantity of oleoresin (Alencar, 1982;Barbosa et al, 2009;Medeiros & Vieira, 2008;Medeiros et al, 2018;Plowden, 2001;Rigamonte-Azevedo et al, 2006;Souza & Higuchi, 2014). Therefore, the data from Copaifera spp.…”

“…Many researchers have tried to identify the factors that influence oleoresin production from Copaifera spp., relating differences to species of the genus, the size of the trees, the seasonality of extraction, the position of trees in the landscape, plus other environmental and genetic characteristics (Alencar, 1982;Baima et al, 1999;Barbosa et al, 2009;Ferreira & Braz, 2001;Martins et al, 2013;Medeiros & Vieira, 2008;Medeiros, Vieira, Almeida, & Tomazello Filho, 2018;Newton, Watkinson, & Peres, 2011;Oliveira, Lameira, & Zoghbi, 2006;Plowden, 2001;Rigamonte-Azevedo, Wadt, & Wadt, 2006;Roquette et al, 2018;Wadtet al, 2007).

“…Although diverse studies have attempted to identify the factors that interfered in the yield of oleoresin, no consensus has been reached about the factors that determine the oleoresin yield from Copaifera spp. Research conducted to date has raised the hypothesis that genetic and physiological factors are related to the production of copaiba oleoresin (Alencar, 1982;Martins et al, 2013;Medeiros & Vieira, 2008). However, tree physiological processes may affect yield, which could vary by forest type, hydrology, soil fertility, growth, interspecific competition, and intensity of exploitation (Alencar, 1982;Medeiros & Vieira, 2008;Medeiros et al, 2018;Newton et al, 2011;Plowden, 2003;Roquette et al, 2018).…”

El objetivo de este estudio fue investigar la relación entre las variables dendrométricas y del suelo con el rendimiento de aceite de Copaifera spp. y ajustar una ecuación para predecir la productividad en bosque primario. En el área de la investigación, 30 árboles de Copaifera spp. fueron seleccionados como muestras para la extracción del aceite por un período de 24 horas, con el uso de la barrena con 1,91 cm (3/4"). Además, fueron colectadas informaciones sobre el tamaño de los árboles y las características del suelo superficial en los alrededores de cada árbol. Se aplicó el análisis de componentes principales para verificar la relación de las variables con el rendimiento de aceite y, posteriormente, fue ajustada una ecuación para predecir este rendimiento mediante análisis de regresión. La única variable relacionada con el rendimiento de aceite fue la altura del fuste, y fue selecionada como el modelo que presentó mejor coeficiente de determinácion (0,84) y error típico de estimación (13,11%). Por lo tanto, se concluyó que el rendimiento del aceite de Copaifera spp. en bosque primario tiene una correlación positiva y significativa con la altura del fuste, mientras que las otras variables dendrométricas y del suelo superficial no presentaron correlación significativa con el rendimiento de aceite.

Copaifera is a tree that produces an oleoresin that has great historical and economic importance. These oleoresins display several pharmacological properties, such as antiinflammatory and antimicrobial, among others. The commercialization of Copaifera oleoresin occurs, in many cases, without any quality control, which facilitates its adulteration. Validated analytical methods can provide a safe quality control. In this work, the 800 Automatic Spinning Band Distillation equipment was used to perform the fractionation of the volatile oils obtained by hydrodistillation of Copaifera multijuga, C. paupera, C. Publifora and C. langsdorffii, aiming to isolate and purify the major compounds present in these oils. For purification, classical column chromatography was used, furnishing six isolated sesquiterpenes. The sesquiterpenes were used as standards in the development and validation of the method by GC-FID. The evaluated parameters were selectivity, linearity, precision, accuracy and robustness and they are all in accordance with ANVISA and International Conference on Harmonization guidelines. The developed method is reliable for the quantification of sesquiterpenes in Copaifera oleoresins. Both volatile oils and isolated sesquiterpenes had their minimum inhibitory concentration determined against strains of Gram-negative and Grampositive bacteria and yeasts. Copaifera langsdorffi oleoresin was the only one active against all of the evaluated microorganisms, displaying good antimicrobial potential.

Molecular distillation of copaiba oleoresin—A clean process for diterpenes enrichment

Copaiba oleoresin has sesquiterpenes and diterpenes with significant medicinal properties, including being antimicrobial, antiparasitic, and wound healing, among others. Thus, the objective of this work was to study the diterpene enrichment of the copaiba oleoresin from Copaifera officinalis via molecular distillation. Evaporator temperature (EVT) and feed flow rate (Q) were evaluated using an experimental design (2 2 with central point) considering the ratio of distillate and residue streams (DTR) as the response to optimize the residue recovery. EVT and Q were the main effects for diterpenes recovery, with the best experimental condition at 100 C (EVT) and 15 ml/min (Q) under 0.001 mbar, of which the residue stream had a diterpenes content of 99.25%. With the molecular distillation process, it was possible to add value to the copaiba streams, separating and purifying diterpenes with applicability in the biomedical and pharmaceutical industries since no solvent is used in this process (clean).
