TL;DR: Phenolics antioxidant phytochemicals have been recently implicated for the lower rates of cardiac disease mortality among people consuming a Mediterranean diet and could play a role in protecting LDL against oxidation if the substance is absorbed by the body.
Abstract: Phenolics antioxidant phytochemicals have been recently implicated for the lower rates of cardiac disease mortality among people consuming a Mediterranean diet. Essential oils are natural products extracted from vegetable materials, which can be used as antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidants, and anti-carcinogenic agents or to preserve and give specific flavors to foods. The activities of 23 selected essential oils in inhibiting the copper-catalyzed oxidation of human-low-density lipoproteins (LDL) were determined in vitro. LDL oxidation was inhibited between 6, 2, and 83% by 2 μM (GAE) total phenolics. The relative inhibition of LDL oxidation was used to categorize the essential oils into four groups below 2% when they contained methylchavicol, anethol, p-cymen, apiole, cinnamic ether; 6−10% if they possessed a majority of carvacrol, thymol, p-cymene, or vanillin; 10−50% for moderate amounts of thymol, carvacrol, cuminol, or eugenol; and 50−100% when eugenol is the major component. Total phenol content ...

TL;DR: In this paper, the antioxidant, antifungal, and antibacterial potentials of essential oil and acetone extract of Anethum graveolens L. were investigated in the present study, which showed excellent activity for the inhibition of primary and secondary oxidation products for rapeseed oil in comparision with butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and BHT, which were evaluated using peroxide, thiobarbituric acid, p-anisidine, and carbonyl values.
Abstract: The antioxidant, antifungal, and antibacterial potentials of essential oil and acetone extract of Anethum graveolens L. were investigated in the present study. The extract has shown excellent activity for the inhibition of primary and secondary oxidation products for rapeseed oil in comparision with butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), which were evaluated using peroxide, thiobarbituric acid, p-anisidine, and carbonyl values. The activity of extract was further confirmed using other antioxidant properties such as ferric thiocyanate method inlinoleic acid system, which reducing power and scavenging effect (%) on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. Using inverted Petri plate method, the volatile oil completely inhibited the growth of Fusarium graminearum at 6 μL dose. Moreover, using poison food technique, the essential oil was found to be highly effective for controlling the growth of Penicillium citrinum and Aspergillus niger. In antibacterial investigations, using agar well diffusion method, the extract has shown better activity for Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus in comparison with commercial bactericide. However, essential oil has shown better activity for Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Gas chromatographic-mass spectroscopy studies on essential oil resulted in the identification of 35 components, which account for the 98.9% of the total amount. The major component was carvone (55.2%) followed bylimonene (16.6%), dillapiole (14.4%), andlinalool (3.7%). The analysis of acetone extract showed the presence of 25 components, which account for 94.5% of the total amount. The major components were dill apiole (43.2%), linoleic acid (23.1%), trans-anethole (11.0%), 2-propanone, 1-(4-methoxyphenyl) (4.6%), carvone (3.1%), p-anisaldehyde (2.7%), and myristicin (1.5%). In conclusion, the results presented here show that dill essential oil could be considered as a source for natural antimicrobial, whereas its extract could be considered as an alternative source of natural antioxidant.

TL;DR: The production of volatiles in plants, callus tissue, and cell suspensions was found to be time-dependent, and palmitic and stearic acids were the most abundant fatty acids in all materials; however, higher levels were found in plants.
Abstract: Volatile compounds from plants, callus tissue cultures, and cell suspensions of parsley (Petroselinum crispum) were captured during the growth cycle using a dynamic headspace extraction and were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Parsley plants were found to produce mainly monoterpenes, and the compound of major abundance was p-1,3,8-menthatriene, followed by beta-phellandrene and apiole. Callus cultures and cell suspensions produced aldehydes (nonanal and decanal) that were also detected in parsley plant. The former also produced limonene, acetophenone, and benzotiazol; these were not observed in the plants. The production of volatiles in plants, callus tissue, and cell suspensions was found to be time-dependent. Free and bound fatty acids were also monitored by an in situ method. Palmitic (C16:0) and stearic (C18:0) acids were the most abundant fatty acids in all materials; however, higher levels were found in plants. On the other hand, the unsaturated C16:1 and C16:3 were not detected in the in vitro cultures.
