Essential oils are complex mixtures of odorous and volatile compounds derived from secondary plant metabolism. They can be isolated from many plants by mechanical pressing or hydro- and steam-distillation and are known to induce a wide range of biological effects through their antibacterial,
Inflammation is a local tissue response to attacks characterized by vascular and cellular events, including intense oxidative stress. Riparin A, a compound obtained from Aniba riparia, has been shown to have antioxidant activity and cytotoxicity in vitro. This study was aimed at evaluating the
Essential oils (EOs) from leaves and branches of Aniba parviflora (Meisn.) Mez were obtained by hydrodistillation and their chemical compositions determined by gas chromatography - mass spectrometry. Oxygenated sesquiterpenoids were the most representative compound class in both EOs (~ 40%).
