Abstract

Citrus peel essential oil (PEO) is utilized in the food and juice processing, pharmaceuticals, and aroma industries due to various nutritional, pharmaceutical and cosmaceutical properties. In this study, the PEO of five wild Citrus species (Citrus medica, C. indica, C. latipes, C. hystrix, and C. cavaleriei) from northeast India, has been extracted using the hydro-distillation method. The oil yield varied from 0.02% to 0.32% (w/w). Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of citrus PEO showed the presence of 36 compounds in the range of 84.63–95.9%. Limonene was the major compound in the PEO, with the highest percentage in C. cavaleriei (80.86%), followed by C. hystrix (75.7%), medica (66.9%), C. indica (63.03%), and C. latipes (23.95%). Other compounds present in a considerable percentage were γ-terpinene (C. latipes, 16.86%; C. indica, 14.72%; C. medica, 6.73%), myrcene (C. indica, 5.34%), β-pinene (C. latipes, 9.49%), 3-carene (C. medica, 6.38%), (E)- β-caryophyllene (C. latipes, 6.07%), and neryl acetate (C. latipes, 6.10%). Anti-inflammatory assay of PEO in the five Citrus species revealed the highest anti-inflammatory activity in C. indica. The study suggests that wild citrus fruits can be an important source of limonene and other bioactive compounds with potential pharmaceutical and industrial applications.

印度东北部野生柑橘的精油成分和抗炎活性

柑橘果皮精油（PEO）具有多种营养、药用和美容特性，可用于食品和果汁加工、制药和芳香产业。本研究采用水蒸馏法提取了印度东北部五种野生柑橘（Citrus medica、C. indica、C. latipes、C. hystrix 和 C. cavaleriei）的果皮精油。出油率从 0.02% 到 0.32%（重量比）不等。柑橘类 PEO 的气相色谱-质谱（GC-MS）分析表明，其中含有 36 种化合物，含量在 84.63-95.9% 之间。柠檬烯是 PEO 中的主要化合物，在 C. cavaleriei 中的比例最高（80.86%），其次是 C. hystrix（75.7%）、medica（66.9%）、C. indica（63.03%）和 C. latipes（23.95%）。占相当比例的其他化合物有γ-萜品烯（C. latipes，16.86%；C. indica，14.72%；C. medica，6.73%）、月桂烯（C. indica，5.34%）、β-蒎烯（C. latipes，9.49%）、3-蒈烯（C. medica，6.38%）、(E)-β-石竹烯（C. latipes，6.07%）和乙酸橙花酯（C. latipes，6.10%）。五种柑橘中 PEO 的抗炎测定显示，籼柑的抗炎活性最高。该研究表明，野生柑橘类水果是柠檬烯和其他生物活性化合物的重要来源，具有潜在的医药和工业应用价值。

期刊介绍： Biochemical Systematics and Ecology is devoted to the publication of original papers and reviews, both submitted and invited, in two subject areas: I) the application of biochemistry to problems relating to systematic biology of organisms (biochemical systematics); II) the role of biochemistry in interactions between organisms or between an organism and its environment (biochemical ecology). In the Biochemical Systematics subject area, comparative studies of the distribution of (secondary) metabolites within a wider taxon (e.g. genus or family) are welcome. Comparative studies, encompassing multiple accessions of each of the taxa within their distribution are particularly encouraged. Welcome are also studies combining classical chemosystematic studies (such as comparative HPLC-MS or GC-MS investigations) with (macro-) molecular phylogenetic studies. Studies that involve the comparative use of compounds to help differentiate among species such as adulterants or substitutes that illustrate the applied use of chemosystematics are welcome. In contrast, studies solely employing macromolecular phylogenetic techniques (gene sequences, RAPD studies etc.) will be considered out of scope. Discouraged are manuscripts that report known or new compounds from a single source taxon without addressing a systematic hypothesis. Also considered out of scope are studies using outdated and hard to reproduce macromolecular techniques such as RAPDs in combination with standard chemosystematic techniques such as GC-FID and GC-MS.
