Estudo do perfil químico do óleo volátil das folhas da espécie de rutaceae: uma revisão sistemática

Abstract

Studies of medicinal plants are extensive, as they have antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, fungicidal, cosmetic and other uses. Within the botanical diversity existing in Brazil, the research was specifically directed to the Rutaceae family, which is very diverse, being one of the countries with the greatest flora biodiversity on the planet. Several studies were carried out, including systematic reviews, in several areas such as: herbal medicines and acupuncture; understanding biological processes in the development of Diabetes Mellitus; parental communication about sex; define the effectiveness of

8 homeopathic medicine clinic methods. The challenge of botanical diversification arises from the vast and intricate variety of plant species. This effort requires the exploration and classification of numerous types of plants, each possessing distinct characteristics, ecological functions, and potential uses. The complexity of this diversity poses significant challenges for both researchers and industries. This research aims to systematize bibliographic data through research in the databases, Google academic, Scielo, Pubmed, Scopus and Web of Science, regarding the chemical profile of volatile oils present in the leaves of the Rutaceae family and verify the presence of the β- marker. caryophyllene.
