ABSTRACT

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo determinar a composição química e avaliar a atividade antimicrobiana dos óleos essenciais obtidos das folhas (frescas e secas) e flores da Callistemon viminalis. Os óleos essenciais foram analisados por CG/EM. A concentração inibitória mínima (CIM) foi determinada utilizando o método de microdiluição em caldo frente a bactérias Gram-positivas e Gram-negativas. De um total de 96,72%, 98,70% dos compostos identificados nos óleos essenciais foram monoterpenos. O 1,8-cineol foi o componente majoritário no óleo essencial das folhas frescas (70,43%), folhas secas (71,71%) e flores (42,39%), seguido do tricicleno com 12,97% nas folhas frescas, 8,20% nas folhas secas e 28,08% nas flores. A CIM para todos os micro-organismos testados foi ≥ a 2.000 μg/mL. Esse estudo é o primeiro relato sobre a composição química e atividade antimicrobiana do óleo essencial das flores de C. viminalis.


The aim of this study was to determine the chemical composition and the antimicrobial activity of essential oils of Callistemon viminalis leaves (fresh and dried) and flowers. The essential oils were analyzed by GC/MS and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria was determined by the broth microdilution method. Between 96.72% and 98.70% of the compounds identified in the essential oils were monoterpenes. 1,8-Cineole was the major component in the essential oils of fresh leaves (70.43%), dried leaves (71.71%) and flowers (42.39%), followed by tricyclene: 12.97% in the fresh leaves, 8.20% in the dried leaves and 28.08% in the flowers. The MIC for all microorganisms tested was ≥ 2,000 μg/mL, for all the essential oil samples. This study is the first report on the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of essential oil from the flowers of C. viminalis.
