Chemistry of Natural Compounds, 2011

Some of these species feature prominently in the pharmacopoeias of many countries throughout the world. The range of traditional applications of the herbs in domestic medicine seems to be endless: they have been used as a medication against perspiration and fever; as a carminative; a spasmolytic; an antiseptic/bactericide; an astringent; a gargle or mouthwash against inflammation of the mouth, tongue,

Comparison of the essential oil components in wild and cultivate population of Salvia virgata

Aerial parts of S. virgata were collected in the full flowering stage from natural sites in Sepidan (Fars province) and cultivated in the research farm of the Sadra city in Fars province in 2012. The essential oils obtained by hydro-distillation of dried aerial parts and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. In cultivated plants 46 constituents, representing 100% of the oils, respectively, were identified. (E)-Caryophyllene (37.0), Caryophyllene oxide (15.2), Phytol (6.1), Spathulenol (5.0), Germacrene D (4.0), Sabinene (3.9) were found to be the major constituents. In wild plants 45 constituents, representing 98.9 of the oils, respectively, were identified (E)-Caryophyllene (38.1), Caryophyllene oxide (18.6), Bicyclogermacrene (9.0), Spathulenol (7.4), Phytol (4.0), Germacrene D (3.3) were found to be the major constituents.

Composition of the essential oil of two Salvia taxa (Salvia sclarea and Salvia verticillata subsp. verticillata) from Turkey

Natural Science and Discovery, 2015

Objective: The essential oil composition of two Salvia taxa (Salvia sclarea and Salvia verticillata subsp. verticillata) analysed and yield of compositions were analysed Material and Methods: The essential oil was extracted by hydro distillation using a modified Clevenger apparatus coupled to a 2 L round-bottom flask. A total of 100 g of fresh plant material (aerial parts) and 1 L of water were used for the extraction. Gas chromatography / Mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis were applied to extracts. Results: The essential oil yields of Salvia sclarea and Salvia verticillata L. subsp. verticillata were found as 0.4 and 0.3 %v/w, respectively. Overall, thirty seven compounds which accounted for 97.9% in Salvia sclarea and seventy four constituents, which accounted for 98.6% of the total compositions of each oil are determined in Salvia verticillata L. subsp. verticillata. The spathulenol (19%), caryophyllene oxide (15.5%), linolyl acetate (11.3%) and linalool L (8.5%) were the major compounds of Salvia sclarea and the germacrene D (13.8%), spathulenol (10%) and limonene (4.5%), 1.8-cineole (4.5%) were the main compounds of the Salvia verticillata L. subsp. Verticillata Conclusion: spathulenol was found as major compound for both Salvia sclarea and Salvia verticillata subsp. verticillata while, the other main components were not showed similarity

Composition of the Essential Oils from Salvia Dominica L. and Salvia Hormium L. Grown in Jordan

Jordan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2013

In Jordan, Salvia dominica L. is widely distributed while Salvia hormium L. is scarcely found. The objective of this study was to determine the volatile oil composition of the fresh and dried aerial parts of these two species, collected during flowering time. The hydrodistilled volatile oils were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The volatile oil of fresh and dry S. dominica was composed mainly of oxygenated monoterpenes (79.0% and 68.1%, respectively). The major components detected in the oils of fresh and dry S. dominica L. were linalool (31.4% and 18.3%, respectively) and alpha terpineol (25.4% and 15%, respectively). Mono-and sesquiterpenoids were detected in the volatile oils of fresh and dry S. hormium in nearly equal amounts. Alpha cadinene (7.8% and 11.4%, respectively) was the predominant constituent in oils obtained from fresh and dry plants. Eugenol (7.3%) was found only in the volatile oil of fresh S. hormium.

Chemical characterization and antimicrobial activity of essential oils of salvia L. species

Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos, 2009

Neste trabalho os óleos essenciais de S. officinalis, S. sclarea, S. lavandulifolia e Salvia sp. foram analisados quimicamente por cromatografia gasosa acoplada a espectrômetro de massas. A atividade antimicrobiana dos óleos essenciais foi testada contra 10 microrganismos utilizando o método de difusão em discos e através da determinação da Concentração Inibitória Mínima (CIM). Cânfora, α -e ß-thujone e 1,8-cineol foram os compostos majoritários identificados na maioria dos óleos essenciais, exceto para S. sclarea, em que linalol, acetato de linalil e α-terpineol foram os compostos majoritários identificados. As atividades antimicrobianas apresentaram diferenças significativas (p < 0,05) somente quando obtidas pelo método CIM. Microorganismos gram-positivos apresentaram grande sensibilidade para os óleos essenciais. A menor CIM foi observada para o Staphylococcus aureus quando exposto a 2,31 mg.mL -1 de óleo essencial de S. lavandulifolia, enquanto que a maior CIM foi observada para Shigella flexneri exposta a 9,25 mg.mL -1 do mesmo óleo essencial, provando que este óleo constitui-se em um eficiente agente bacteriostático contra microrganismos gram-positivos. Palavras-chave: Salvia; óleos essenciais; atividade antimicrobiana; caracterização química.

Variations in the essential oil composition of Sulvkr ofJicinulis L. growirtg in Estonia ancl in other European countries were determined. The oils rvere obtained in yields ol 2.2-24,8mLkg-r. In three samples, the content of essentiirl oil did not conform to the EP standarcl (l0mLkg-r). Varialions in the essential oil composition of serge were studied using capillary gas chromatographic methods. A total ol 40 comportents were identified. The principal colnponents in the sage oils rvere 1,8-cineole, ciunphor, a-thujone, p-thu.ione. borneol, and yiridiflorol. The chenotypes ol sage were not determined in investigated samples. The concentration of the rnain compounds in the drugs cultivated in Estonia varied in about the same ralnge as the concentrations ol'these compounds in the oils of drugs obtained fronr other countries. The comparatively high concentration oltoxic thujones seenl to be chirtacteristic to sage leaves cultivated in Estoniir.

Chemical Investigation of decanted and hydrophilic fractions of Salvia sclarea essential oil

The decanted and recovered (hydrophilic fraction) essential oils of Salvia sclarea obtained from a field distillation unit and Clevenger apparatus distilled essential oil were analyzed by GC and GC-MS. A total of 20 components representing 96.45 %-99.53 % of the oils were identified. The major components of the oils were linalool (27.08 %-62.51 %), linalyl acetate (nil-43.01 %), α-terpineol (2.12 %-20.58 %), β-myrcene (2.03 %-7.29 %), geraniol (0.74 %-4.84 %), (E)-β-ocimene (1.19 %-4.83 %) and geranyl acetate (0.36 %-3.11 %). The oxygenated monoterpenes were found to be higher in the recovered oil (90.28 %) followed by Clevenger distilled oil (87.13 %) and decanted oil (80.39 %). Monoterpene and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons were found to be higher in the decanted oil (17.38 % and 1.45 %, respectively) compared with Clevenger oil (11.38 % and 0.64 %, respectively) and recovered oil (6.06 % and nil, respectively). One of the major components of the decanted oil, linalyl acetate, was not present in the recovered oil obtained from the field distillation unit.

Aerial parts of Salvia sclarea were collected in full flowering stage from natural sites on June 2011. Also, the seeds of this plant cultivated in research farm on November 2011. Aerial parts of the cultivated plants harvested at full flowering stage. The essential oils (Eos) obtained by hydro-distillation of dried aerial parts and analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Fifty components were characterized for cultivated plants with linalyl acetate (35.9%), germacrene D (13.3%), linalool (12.8%) and sclareol (9.27%) dominating constituents, 45 constituents were identified for wild plants with linalyl acetate (34.0%), linalool (18.5%), germacrene D (10.0%) and sclareol (8.7%) as the major constituents.
