| description | The antibacterial and insect-repellent activities of the essential oils (EOs) from Argentinian medicinal plants Azorella trifurcata (Gaertn.) Pers., Senecio cfr. oreophyton J. Remy and Senecio cfr. pogonias Cabrera, were investigated. All EOs showed good repellent properties against Triatoma infestans Klug, the vector of the Chagas disease, with percent repellence values between 60% and 70% at 24 h compared with positive control N-N diethyl-m-methylbenzamide (DEET) and moderate activity against the bacteria tested with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values between 31.2 and 2000 μg/ml. The A. trifurcata, Senecio pogonias and Senecio oreophyton EOs, obtained by hydrodistillation, were characterized by GC-FID and GC/MS analyses. Spathulenol (38.2%), myrtenyl acetate (8.4%), α-terpineol (4.5%), limonene (9.8%) and α-thujene (5.4%) were the main constituents in the EO of A. trifurcata. The S. pogonias and S. oreophyton EOs are characterized by a high content of monoterpene hydrocarbons (92% and 95.1%, respectively) with α-pinene, the main component in both oils. To our knowledge, the essential oil composition from Andean medicinal plants A. trifurcata, S. pogonias and S. oreophyton collected in central Andean slopes are reported for the first time. |
