ABSTRACT

The essential oil (EO) of aerial parts of Lantana camara L., Verbenaceae, from Simões, Piaui, Northeast of Brazil, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS techniques. In total, 68 compounds were identified. The most representative compounds of the oil were mono and sesquiterpenes. The main compounds found in the oil of the leaves in different months were β-caryophyllene (10.5%, in June of 2009), sabinene (7.98%, in September of 2008), limonene (7.68%, in September of 2008), spathulenol (11.64%, in September of 2008). The oil from stems of L. camara was characterized by a largest amount of sesquiterpenoids, with spatulenol (15.9%) and caryophyllene oxide (17.1% in June of 2009), as main components. β-Gurjunene (32.7%, in September of 2008) was the most prominent compound in the stems oils, which was absent or at very low relative abundance in leaves. L. camara essential oils from leaves were cytotoxic to V79 mammalian cells and also to Artemia salina, showing 50% lethal concentration (LC50) values from 0.23 µg/mL. The in vitro data obtained in this study suggested that EO may also be effective treating yeast infection in patients infected with fluconazole and terbinafine resistant isolates, but its toxicity must be monitored carefully.

ABSTRACT

Os óleos essenciais de Lantana camara L. e Lantana sp., Verbenaceae, foram obtidos por hidrodestilação e seus componentes analisados por CG/EM. Tal procedimento analítico revelou a predominância dos sesquiterpenos, biciclogermacreno (19,42 por cento), isocariofileno (16,70 por cento), valenceno (12,94 por cento) e germacreno D (12,34 por cento) no óleo de L. camara, enquanto o biciclogermacreno (13,93 por cento), germancreno D (27,54 e β-cariofileno (31,50 por cento), por cento) destacaram-se como majoritários no óleo de Lantana sp. Os dois óleos foram submetidos a avaliação de atividades antibacteriana e de toxicidade usando as larvas de Artemia salina. Os resultados mostraram considerável atividade antibacteriana do óleo de L. camara, principalmente para Proteus vulgaris (ATCC 13315) e Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922). O óleo de Lantana sp. mostrou-se mais significativo contra Sthaphylococcus aureus (ATCC 10390). As atividades de toxicidade CL50 revelaram resultados inferiores ao limite padrão de 1000 μg/mL.


The essential oils from Lantana camara L. and Lantana sp. Verbenaceae, were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC/MS. This GC/MS analysis revealed the sesquiterpenoids bicyclogermacrene (19.42 percent), isocaryophyllene (16.70 percent), valencene (12.94 percent) and germacrene D (12.34 percent) as majoritaries in the essential oil of L. camara, and bicyclogermacrene (13.93 percent), germacrene D (27.54 and β-caryophyllene (31.50 percent) in the essential oil from Lantana sp. The two essential oils were evaluated to antibacterial activity and toxicity using Artemia salina. The results revealed considerable antibacterial activity for essential oil from L. camara, meanly for Proteus vulgaris (ATCC 13315) and Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922). The essential oil of Lantana sp. showed major activity for Sthaphylococcus aureus (ATCC 10390). The evaluation of toxicity CL50 revealed results with minor values to limit pattern of 1000 μg/mL.
