Abstract
This article describes the chemical composition, physical properties and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) activity of stem-distilled essential oil (EO) from Bursera graveolenswood chips, Burseraceae. The plant material was acquired in Quimis (Bosque de Sancán), city of Jipijapa in the province of Manabí, coastal region of Ecuador. Thirty-six components were identified by CG-MS, which represented 98.54% of the volatile oil. The main components were limonene (68.52%) and mentofuran (20.37%). The hydrocarbon monoterpenes constituted the most abundant fractions. The average yield of the EOwas 1.26%. Regarding the physical properties of EO, the following values were obtained: relative density (1,029 g/mL), refractive index (1,477) and specific rotation (+4,567). The EOpresented IC50inhibition values of 47.2 and 51.9 μg/mL for the enzymes AChE and BuChE, respectively.
期刊介绍:
The Boletín Latinoamericano y del Caribe de Plantas Medicinales y Aromáticas (BLACPMA), [Latin American and Caribbean Bulletin of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants]; currently edited by the publishing house MS-Editions, is a bi-monthly international publication that publishes original peerreviewed research in the field of medicinal and aromatic plants, with nearly 20 years of experience. BLACPMA is a scientific journal that publishes two types of articles: Reviews (only in English) and Original Articles (Spanish or English), its main lines of action being agronomy, anthropology and ethnobotany, industrial applications, botany, quality and standardization, ecology and biodiversity, pharmacology, phytochemistry, pharmacognosy, regulatory and legislative aspects. While all areas of medicinal plants are welcome and the experimental approaches used can be broad and interdisciplinary; other areas of research that are not mentioned depend on the Editorial Committee for their acceptance.
