The objective of this work is to investigate the insecticidal potential of the essential oils of the different parts of Melaleuca leucadendra, on the cruciferous moth, Plutella xylostella, contributing to the studies aimed at botanical insecticides. To this end, we analyzed comparatively the insecticidal activity of the leaf and fruit oils of M. leucadendra on P. xylostella by means of the larvicide toxicity bioassays and embryocid toxicity, also comparing its results with the insecticide Azamax® Commercial. The OEs obtained for leaves and fruits of M. leucadendra, presented yield of 0.28% ± 0.05 and 0.18% ± 0.03 respectively, being all in acceptable standards for plants producing essential oils. As the majority constituent of these oils, sesquiterpene (E)-nerolidol in concentrations above 90% was characterized in both parts. The results obtained through the larvicide toxicity Bioassay showed a lethal mean concentration of 0.15 mg/mL and 0.17 mg/mL for the oils of the fruits and leaves of M. leucadendra, respectively, but not statistically different. For the experiments carried out on the embryonic phase of P. xylostella, again there was no statistical difference, showing LC50 of 0.23 mg/mL and 0.28 mg/mL for leaf and fruit oils, respectively. Both essential oils, as well as the majority constituent, presented higher toxicity on the cruciferous moth than the commercial insecticide Azamax® (LC50 = 2,75 mg/mL and LC50 = 2,57 mg/mL on the larvae and eggs, respectively), showing promising in the control of the Plutella xylostella.

Syzygium cumini, known as purple olive, or jamul, dates back to its healing powers since the beginnings of many societies, today confirmed through its antioxidant, anti-diabetic, anti-fungal properties and reports against different arthropods. The essential oil, extracted from the fresh leaves, through hydrodistillation technique with the aid of a Clevenger type apparatus, had a yield of 0.12%m/m and its chemical characterization, through Gas Chromatography coupled to a Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS), provided as major constituents (Z)-[beta]-ocimene (30.456%), [alfa]-pinene (15.537%) and (E)-[beta]-ocimene (15.177%). The contact bioassays performed, with the objective of identifying the effects of the oil on the spider mite, demonstrated a considerable toxicity of the oil. The residual contact bioassay, which the mites are placed on already treated leaves, presented the LC50 = 7.54uL/mL. While in the spray bioassay, where the mites are sprayed when they are on the leaves, presented a LC50 = 8.69uL/mL. In addition, the oil was also showed an ovicidal property with an estimated LC50 of 0.22uL/mL. this essential oilvshowed similar and promising effects compared to acaricides already marketed, while bioassaysvdemonstrated how different tests act on pest instinct mechanisms.

Composição química, atividade acaricida, propriedade antioxidante, inibição da acetilcolinesterase e toxicidade do óleo essencial das folhas de Sparattanthelium botocudorum
(2024-03-05) Silva, Mirian Luzinete da; Camara, Cláudio Augusto Gomes da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5615678215435460; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4499498152298785
Sparattanthelium botocudorum is a species endemic to Brazil, commonly known as “Canela-brava”, this shrub is distributed on the coast of Paraíba and in the state of Pernambuco. Due to the scarcity of chemical and biological studies on this plant, the research aimed to determine the chemical composition of the essential oil of the leaves as well as the evaluation of the acaricidal, antioxidant and toxicity properties against Artemia salina. The essential oil, extracted from fresh leaves, through the hydrodistillation technique with the aid of a Clevenger-type device, had a yield of 0.40% m/m and its chemical characterization, through Gas Chromatography coupled to the Mass Spectrometer (CG-MS), emerged as the majority constituents were the sesquiterpenes Germanecrene D with (38.28 %), E-Nerolidol (18.95 %), [beta]-Caryophyllene (14.49 %) and Biciclogermacrene (14.18 %) and the single monoterpene Z-[beta]-Ocimene identified in the OE with a percentage of 0.37%. Residual contact bioassays were carried out, with the aim of identifying the effects of the oil on the two-spotted mite, and showed promising toxicity. The residual contact bioassay, in which the mites are arranged on already treated leaves, showed LC50 = 16.5 μL/mL. Furthermore, the oil also demonstrated ovicidal properties with an estimated LC50 of 1.20 μL/mL. And regarding repellency activity, the oil showed a better potential with the LC30 concentration 8.8 μL/mL. After evaluating the inhibition activity of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme, the essential oil from the leaves of S. botocudorum inhibited the enzyme, since the LC50 resulted was 2.9 μg/mL below the LC50 of the positive control, which is 5.95 μg/mL. mL. Furthermore, OE presented antioxidant properties for the free radical DPPH˙, estimating an EC50 = 110.3 μg/mL, while for the free radical ABTS˙+ it was EC50 = 49.23 μg/mL. Finally, the oil exhibited a toxicity concentration of 700 μg/mL for the toxicity test against A. salina, which compared to what described in the literature had no toxicity. Therefore, the study showed that the essential oil presented similar and promising effects compared to already commercialized acaricides, and that the bioassays presented different routes of action, therefore acting with different mechanisms on the pest and presenting a biological property of antioxidant activity.
Composição química, atividade citotóxica, acaricida e antioxidante do óleo essencial das flores de Caesalpinia echinata (Pau-brasil)
(2021-12-10) Rodrigues, Lucas Vitor Batista; Camara, Cláudio Augusto Gomes da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5615678215435460; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7934872766687903
Belonging to the family Fabaceae, Caesalpinia echinata is a tree endemic to Brazil, popularly known as pau-brasil. It was widely explored because of the quality of its wood and the produc-tion of a red pigment and much coveted in colonial times for dyeing fabrics and due to predatory extractivism, it was almost extinct. Currently, wood is much sought after for the manufacture of bows for violins for its ideal stiffness and density. The scarcity of chemical and biological studies of different parts of the plant motivated the chemical composition of the essential oil of the flowers as well as the evaluation of the acaricide, cytotoxicity properties against saline ar-temia and antioxidant. The flowers of C. echinata were collected on the campus of the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco. The essential oil (EO) was extracted from the hydrodistilla-tion technique by a modified Clevenger type apparatus. The chemical composition of the oil was determined by gas chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer. Residual contact was the method selected to evaluate the acaricide action on Tetranychus urticae and the biological model selected for cytotoxicity evaluation was That of A. salina. The EO of the flowers pre-sented monoterpenes as the main chemical class. The main compounds identified were linalool (32.33%), Z-jasmona (14.94%) and [beta]-E-ocimene (10.44%). The essential oil for the control of T. urticae presented a LC50 = 290.15 uL/mL. The EO revealed an antioxidant capacity for the free radical DPPH˙ estimated at EC50 = 364.10 ug/mL, while for the free radical ABTS˙+ was EC50 = 280.50 ug/mL. The oil exhibited a LC50 = 97.41ug/mL for the toxicity test against A. salina. This study showed that the essential oil of C. echinata flowers has acaricide, antioxidant and cytotoxic biological property against A. salina.
