Abstract

The plant derivatives are considered the safe additives with strong antimicrobial, flavoring and antioxidant attributes in the food industry. The aim of the present research is to evaluate the biochemical characteristics of essential oil substances in Rumex alveolatus plant. The essential oil of plant was extracted and obtained components were assessed through the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The total phenolic (TPC) and flavonoid (TFC) contents, antioxidant, cytotoxicity, antimicrobial attributes and also essential oil affected on the pathogen morphology. The main chemical constituents of Rumex alveolatus essential oil contained β-santalol (15.88 %) and α-santalol (11.41 %) that FTIR identified their functional groups. The TPC and TFC were 102.12 ± 7.3 (mg gallic acid/ g dry weight) and 72.67 ± 4.78 (mg quercetin/g dry weight), respectively. The IC50 levels of essential oil were determined as 89.19 ± 2.3 by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) inhibition and 101.07 ± 1.5 (μg/mL) through ABTS (2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radicals, which calculated 38.49 (μg/mL) for survival of Caco-2 cancer cells. Based on results of disk and well diffusion agars, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and also minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes, 5 and 128 μg/mL) and Escherichia coli (64 and 512 μg/mL) were the most sensitive and resistant strains against essential oil, respectively. According to the scanning electron microscope images, mentioned essential oil caused changes in cell wall of Listeria monocytogenes. As a result, Rumex alveolatus essential oil is a promising antioxidant, anticancer and antimicrobial constituents and applies in the food products.
