    Avaliação antifungica, farmacognóstica e toxicológica sazonal de Petiveria alliacea L. (Phytolaccaceae)
    (Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-12-20) OLIVEIRA, Fábio Rodrigues de; GONÇALVES, Ana Cristina Baetas; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6886126078022769; ANDRADE, Marcieni Ataíde de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8514584872100128
    The study of medicinal plants raised great scientific interest, mainly due to them being considered as potential sources of bioactive molecules with differentiated structure and new mechanism of action. The importance of research focused on the discovery and production of new herbal medicines should be the great contribution they have presented before diverse pathologies. The species Petiveria alliacea is a medicinal plant widely used by the population of the Amazon region and stands out for presenting various claims and still use some classes of metabolites with proven therapeutic actions. This study aimed to evaluate seasonal pharmacognostical parameters, antifungal potential of the extracts produced at different sampling times on Aspergillus species and toxicity of these in vitro and in vivo. In the evaluation of seasonal Pharmacognostical, P. alliacea, using Brazilian Pharmacopeia methods the results demonstrated reproducible parameters for quality control of the plant drug, there was no difference in the presence of the chemical constituents of hydroalcoholic and dust, revealing the presence of saponins, alkaloids and sugars across the plant and root extracts and only sesquiterpenolactones depsides. The results of microdilution method performed with extracts from the roots of two periods, showed weak antifungal activity in vitro, but did not observe any effect of extracts of the aerial parts. The cytotoxicity was evaluated by MTT colorimetric method, showed that the hydroalcoholic extract of the root of the two periods did not reduce cell viability in any of the concentrations tested, and was any signs of acute toxicity of the extract at a dose of 5000 mg/kg in mice. These data are considered relevant and the current study showed that P. alliacea is a promising medicinal species, but further investigations are required for its various allegations are confirmed and usage for the plant to be used in developing a new phytotherapeutic agent.

    Chemical constituents of Aspergillus sp EJC08 isolated as endophyte from Bauhinia guianensis and their antimicrobial activity
    (2013) PINHEIRO, Eduardo Antonio Abreu; CARVALHO, Josiwander Miranda; SANTOS, Diellem Cristina Paiva dos; FEITOSA, André de Oliveira; MARINHO, Patrícia Santana Barbosa; GUILHON, Giselle Maria Skelding Pinheiro; SANTOS, Lourivaldo da Silva; SOUZA, Afonso Duarte Leão de; MARINHO, Andrey Moacir do Rosário
    The present work reports the isolation of five compounds from Aspergillus sp EJC08 isolated as endophytic from Bauhinia guianensis, a tipical plant of the Amazon. The compounds ergosterol (1), ergosterol peroxide (2), mevalolactone (3), monomethylsulochrin (4) and trypacidin A (5) were isolated by chromatographic procedures and identified by spectral methods of 1D and 2D NMR and MS. Compounds 3, 4 and 5 were tested against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus and showed good activity.

    Efeito fungitóxico in vitro do óleo resina e do óleo essencial de copaíba (Copaifera multijuga Hayne)
    (2009) DEUS, Ricardo Jorge Amorim de; CARVALHO, Antonio Sergio Costa; BANNA, Débora Ariane Dornelas da Silva; ARRUDA, Mara Silvia Pinheiro; ALVES, Claudio Nahum; SANTOS, Alberdan Silva
    In vitro fungitoxic effect of the oil-resin and the essential oil of copaiba (Copaifera multijuga Hayne). Copaifera multijuga Hayne oil, crude and fractions, was evaluated for its in vitro fungitoxic activities against five species of filamentous fungi belonging to the genus Aspergillus and three yeast species of the genus Candida. Oil-resin and essential oil concentrations ranging from 0.008 mg mL-1 to 1.6 mg mL-1 were used in qualitative and quantitative analyses. Samples were placed onto 5mm-diameter paper disks and distributed on Saboraud culture medium in Petri dishes inoculated with conidia and incubated at 28ºC during 10 days. A solution with 1.6 mg mL-1 of miconazole nitrate was used as positive control. Qualitative results indicated that the oil-resin presented good fungistatic activity; however, one of the essential oil fractions was highly effective against Candida parapsilosis IOC-2882, Aspergillus flavus IOC-3874 and A. tamarii IOC- 187, with inhibition halos of 16.0±1.4 mm, 19.5±2.1 mm and 12.5±3.5 mm, respectively. The quantitative evaluation indicated that 0.3 mg mL-1 of the oil-resin inhibited Aspergillus flavus and Candida parapsilosis growth, whereas 0.08 mg mL-1 of the essential oil fraction reached this same activity.
