(L.) Moench (sandy everlasting) is the only species from genus Mill that grows spontaneously in Lithuania. The chemical composition of the essential oils (EOs) from inflorescences and leaves of wild plants was analysed by GC-MS. Palmitic (≤23.8%), myristic (≤14.9%) and lauric (6.1%) acids, -nonanal (10.4%), and trans-β-caryophyllene (≤6.5%) were the major constituents in the EOs. For comparison, the main components in EO from flowers (commercial herb material) of were γ-curcumene (21.5%), β-selinene (13.6%), α-selinene (8.1%), β-eudesmol (8.3%), and α-pinene (6.5%). Composition of methanolic extracts was investigated by HPLC-DAD-TOF. The main compounds were the following: luteolin-7--glucoside, naringenin and its glucoside, apigenin, chlorogenic acid, arenol, and arzanol. Antioxidant activity of EOs and extracts was tested by DPPH and ABTS assays. Sandy everlasting extracts exhibited significantly higher radical scavenging activities (for leaves 11.18 to 19.13 and for inflorescences 1.96 to 6.13 mmol/L TROLOX equivalent) compared to those of all tested EOs (0.25 to 0.46 mmol/L TROLOX equivalent). Antioxidant activity, assayed electrochemically by cyclic and square wave voltammetry correlated with total polyphenolic content in extracts and radical scavenging properties of EOs and extracts. The toxic activity of EOs of both species was evaluated using a brine shrimp () bioassay. inflorescence EO was found to be toxic (LC = 15.99 µg/mL) as well as that of (LC ≤ 23.42 µg/mL) oils.
(L.)Moench(沙生长生草)是唯一一种在立陶宛自然生长的属植物。通过 GC-MS 分析了野生植物的花序和叶片精油(EOs)的化学成分。棕榈酸(≤23.8%)、肉豆蔻酸(≤14.9%)和月桂酸(6.1%)、壬醛(10.4%)和反式-β-石竹烯(≤6.5%)是 EOs 的主要成分。相比之下,精油(商业草药材料)的主要成分是γ-姜黄烯(21.5%)、β-榄香烯(13.6%)、α-榄香烯(8.1%)、β-桉叶醇(8.3%)和α-蒎烯(6.5%)。通过 HPLC-DAD-TOF 研究了甲醇提取物的成分。主要化合物为:木犀草素-7-O-葡萄糖苷、柚皮素及其糖苷、芹菜素、绿原酸、arenol 和 arzanol。通过 DPPH 和 ABTS 测定法测试了 EOs 和提取物的抗氧化活性。与所有测试的 EOs(0.25 至 0.46 mmol/L TROLOX 当量)相比,沙生长生草提取物的自由基清除活性明显更高(叶为 11.18 至 19.13,花序为 1.96 至 6.13 mmol/L TROLOX 当量)。通过循环和方波伏安法电化学测定的抗氧化活性与提取物中的总多酚含量以及 EOs 和提取物的自由基清除特性相关。使用盐水虾()生物测定法评估了两种植物 EOs 的毒性活性。发现花序 EO 具有毒性(LC = 15.99 µg/mL),与 (LC ≤ 23.42 µg/mL)油一样具有毒性。
